And these ideas are more active, stronger, more resistant, more passionate than "politicians" think. We have to be there at the birth of ideas, the bursting outward of their force: not in books expressing them, but in events manifesting this force, in struggles carried on around ideas, for or against them. Ideas do not rule the world. But it is because the world has ideas... that it is not passively ruled by those who are its leaders or those who would like to teach it, once and for all, what it must think.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9479</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything has been said before, but since nobody listens we have to keep going back and beginning all over again. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25163]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything has been said before, but since nobody listens we have to keep going back and beginning all over again.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25163</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Does anyone know where these gondolas of Paris come from? [Fr., Ne sait on pas ou viennent ces gondoles Parisiennes?] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25406]]></link><description><![CDATA[Does anyone know where these gondolas of Paris come from? [Fr., Ne sait on pas ou viennent ces gondoles Parisiennes?]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25406</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All has been looted, betrayed, sold; black death's wing flashed ahead. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29395]]></link><description><![CDATA[All has been looted, betrayed, sold; black death's wing flashed ahead.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29395</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A clean tie attracts the soup of the day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24337]]></link><description><![CDATA[A clean tie attracts the soup of the day.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24337</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We should wage war not to win war, but to win peace. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60615]]></link><description><![CDATA[We should wage war not to win war, but to win peace.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you write down your ideas you automatically focus your full attention on them.

For if we do not trust as much as we pray, we fail in full worship to our Lord in our prayer; and also we hinder and hurt ourselves. The reason is that we do not know truly that our Lord is the ground from which our prayer springeth; nor do we know that it is given us by his grace and his love. If we knew this, it would make us trust to have of our Lord's gifts all that we desire. For I am sure that no man asketh mercy and grace with sincerity, without mercy and grace being given to him first.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6243</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This report confirms everything we've ever said about why the Byrd Amendment should be overturned, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34656]]></link><description><![CDATA[This report confirms everything we've ever said about why the Byrd Amendment should be overturned,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34656</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Open your eyes, look within.

Even though much of what we have exists only as a series of ones and zeroes somewhere in the information sphere, we do get paper copies and we should hang on to those. The movie 'The Net,' I think, makes a very intriguing point, about this very computer literate protagonist who has few human connections, and this is precisely the reason she's vulnerable to the kind of attack she suffers. It seems to me that if we keep that in mind we'll be well served.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38707</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is always in season for old men to learn. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1439]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is always in season for old men to learn.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1439</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The tapestry of history has no point at which you can cut it and leave the design intelligible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56966]]></link><description><![CDATA[The tapestry of history has no point at which you can cut it and leave the design intelligible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56966</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Envy is blind, and is only clever in depreciating the virtues of others. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50562]]></link><description><![CDATA[Envy is blind, and is only clever in depreciating the virtues of others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50562</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The why is plain as way to parish church. -As You Like It.
