The skeptical Greek philosopher may remind us that, after all, the image of Athena is only a symbol, only a means of fixing one's rambling thoughts upon the spirit that is Athena. Yet the idolater will persist in losing sight of the forest for the trees, and the god for the image. The gold and ivory statue of Athena becomes holy in itself, an answerer of prayer, a mysterious source of power, a material object somehow different from other objects. The crucifix, the plaster image, the saint's relic or miraculous medal or cheaply and illegibly printed Bible may become themselves things considered holy and magical, able to stop a bullet. Worse yet, the god confined in an image is a shrunken and powerless god. Because you have limited your concept of God to a man shape on a carved crucifix, you may be in danger of inferring that you are free to outrage the man shapes walking and breathing around you. Because you worship the god in a specially baked wafer and a specially designed chalice, you may forget to worship the God of all bread and all wine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Children are natural mimics: they act like their parents in spite of every attempt to teach them good manners. -Anonymous. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45503]]></link><description><![CDATA[Children are natural mimics: they act like their parents in spite of every attempt to teach them good manners. -Anonymous.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45503</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This many-headed monster, Multitude. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52461]]></link><description><![CDATA[This many-headed monster, Multitude.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To make a happy fireside clime To weans and wife,  That's the true pathos and sublime   Of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19609]]></link><description><![CDATA[To make a happy fireside clime To weans and wife,  That's the true pathos and sublime   Of human life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19609</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As a leader...

I have always endeavored to listen to what each and every person in a discussion had to say before venturing my own opinion.
