But we can at least crystallize the lessons into two simple maxims- one negative, the other positive. The first is that, in face of the overwhelming evidence of history, no general is justified in launching his troops to a direct attack upon an enemy firmly in position. The second, that instead of seeking to upset the enemy's equilibrium by one's attack, it must be upset before a real attack is, or can be successfully launched.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47262</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm not concerned with your liking or disliking me . . .

Often the layman dismisses what the preacher says as something irrelevant to his situation and generation. When he joins a group where he is no longer afraid to be frank, the supposedly faithful member often admits that he has never really accepted what he thinks he has heard. He has, for example, grave reservations about the idea of creation. Did not the world evolve of itself? Do we really need the hypothesis of Infinite Purpose to make sense of the physical, biological, and psychological development? These questions seldom come to the surface when the Church provides merely a one-way preaching. There is little chance of renewal if all that we have is the arrangement by which one speaks and the others listen. One trouble with this conventional system is that the speaker never knows what the unanswered questions are, or what reservations remain in the layman's mentality.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7850</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is something more horrible than hoodlums, churls and vipers, and that is knaves with moral justification for their cause. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43107]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is something more horrible than hoodlums, churls and vipers, and that is knaves with moral justification for their cause.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43107</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are under a Constitution, but the Constitution is what the judges say it is, and the judiciary is the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9912]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are under a Constitution, but the Constitution is what the judges say it is, and the judiciary is the safeguard of our liberty and of our property under the Constitution.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9912</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art and science have their meeting point in method. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9529]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art and science have their meeting point in method.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9529</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We do not see nature with our eyes, but with our understandings and our hearts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64706]]></link><description><![CDATA[We do not see nature with our eyes, but with our understandings and our hearts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64706</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't use a lot where a little will do ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12730]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't use a lot where a little will do]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12730</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything runs to excess; every good quality is noxious if unmixed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52670]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything runs to excess; every good quality is noxious if unmixed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52670</guid></item></channel></rss>
