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[What we're trying to avoid is someone who can't afford a $20 co-pay from leaving a pharmacy without getting their ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38936]]></link><description><![CDATA[What we're trying to avoid is someone who can't afford a $20 co-pay from leaving a pharmacy without getting their medicine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38936</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dreams won't come looking for you.

For the mystical practice of an Indian, Persian, Chinese, or Neo-Platonic mystic it is a matter of indifference whether Rama, Buddha, Laotse, or Porphyrius are myths or not. The mystic has no personal relation to them. It is not here a question of somebody telling me the truth which of myself I cannot find, but of my finding an access to the depths of the world in the depths of my soul. And everywhere the tendency is to eliminate personality. Even where religion does not have this mystical character, it has no relation to an historical person, who communicates himself to me. That is the characteristic essence of the Christian faith alone. Even where a prophet plays the role of a mediator of divine truth, as for example in Islam, the religious act is not directed toward him but toward his teaching or message. But the Christian does not believe in the teachings of Jesus -- which would not be Christian faith, but general religion -- he believes in Christ Himself as being the Word of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6904</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Things always happen in series. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29647]]></link><description><![CDATA[Things always happen in series.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29647</guid></item></channel></rss>
