But at the submicroscopic level, specks of matter scattered through a vast emptiness have such incredible density and weight, and are linked to one another by such powerful forces, that together they produce all the properties of concrete, cast iron and solid rock. In much the same way, specks of knowledge are scattered through a vast emptiness of ignorance, and everything depends upon how solid the individual specks of knowledge are, and on how powerfully linked and coordinated they are with one another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52163</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gorgons, and Hydras, and Chimaeras dire. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60881]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gorgons, and Hydras, and Chimaeras dire.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60881</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You go in there and prepare and play the best you can and play hard, and it'd be big for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41877]]></link><description><![CDATA[You go in there and prepare and play the best you can and play hard, and it'd be big for the school, our fans, our families, the community, to go in and beat a No. 1 team.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41877</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ignorance and superstition ever bear a close and mathematical relation to each other. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52065]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ignorance and superstition ever bear a close and mathematical relation to each other.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52065</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Indecision and delays are the parents of failure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11633]]></link><description><![CDATA[Indecision and delays are the parents of failure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11633</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Child abuse casts a shadow the length of a lifetime. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5930]]></link><description><![CDATA[Child abuse casts a shadow the length of a lifetime.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5930</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Science has sometimes been said to be opposed to faith, and inconsistent with it.

Eccl. 12:6. When he understood it, he called for his friends, and told them of it.

My sword I give to him that shall succeed me in my pilgrimage, and my courage and skill to him that can get it.
