There is no way from one person to another. However loving and sympathetic we try to be, however sound our psychology however frank and open our behaviour we cannot penetrate the incognito of the other man, for there are no direct relationships, not even between soul and soul. Christ stands between us, and we can only get into touch with our neighbors through Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8595</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prejudice, not being founded on reason, cannot be removed by argument ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12462]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prejudice, not being founded on reason, cannot be removed by argument]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12462</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People still think of me as a cartoonist, but the only thing I lift a pen or pencil for these ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66406]]></link><description><![CDATA[People still think of me as a cartoonist, but the only thing I lift a pen or pencil for these days is to sign a contract, a check, or an autograph.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66406</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be kind whenever possible.

("To know all is to forgive all.") ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8418]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a short series on forgiveness:   Tout comprendre, c'est tout pardonner. ("To know all is to forgive all.") No commonplace is more untrue. Behavior, whether conditioned by an individual neurosis or by society, can be understood, that is to say, one knows exactly why such and such an individual behaves as he does. But a personal action or deed is always mysterious. When we really act, precisely because it is a matter of free choice, we can never say exactly why we do this rather than that. But it is only deeds that we are required to forgive. If someone does me an injury, the question of forgiveness only arises if I am convinced (a) that the injury he did me was a free act on his part and therefore no less mysterious to him than to me, and (b) that it was me personally whom he meant to injure. Christ does not forgive the soldiers who are nailing him to the Cross; he asks the Father to forgive them. He knows as well as they do why they are doing this -- they are a squad, detailed to execute a criminal. They do not know what they are doing, because it is not their business, as executioners, to know whom they are crucifying. If the person who does me an injury does not know what he is doing, then it is as ridiculous for me to talk about forgiving him as it would be for me to "forgive" a tile which falls on my head in a gale.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8418</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would like to make it clear that I am continuing as manager of Leicester City, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42702]]></link><description><![CDATA[I would like to make it clear that I am continuing as manager of Leicester City,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42702</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those things that hurt, instruct. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18316]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those things that hurt, instruct.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man's fear of ideas is probably the greatest dike holding back human knowledge and happiness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9543]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man's fear of ideas is probably the greatest dike holding back human knowledge and happiness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9543</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're counting on Jake a lot, but there are a whole lot of other factors and a lot of kids ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31967]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're counting on Jake a lot, but there are a whole lot of other factors and a lot of kids we need to step up.

The question was whether they could be admitted without accepting the teaching and undergoing the rite. It was that question which was settled by the acknowledgement that they had received the Holy Spirit... The difficulty today is that Christians acknowledge that others have the Spirit, and yet do not recognize that they ought to be, and must be -- because spiritually they are -- in communion with one another. Men who hold a theory of the Church which excludes from communion those whom they admit to have the Spirit of Christ simply proclaim that their theory is in flat contradiction to the spiritual fact.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7636</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We remain Safe in the hallowed quiets of the past. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45680]]></link><description><![CDATA[We remain Safe in the hallowed quiets of the past.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45680</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We'll respond; we've responded all season.
