If one is speaking of authority, the united authority of all the Biblical critics in the world counts for nothing. On this they speak simply as men -- men obviously influenced by, and perhaps insufficiently critical of, the spirit of the age they grew up in.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8532</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree. - "Trees". ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27864]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree. - "Trees".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27864</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many pictures turn out to be limp translations of the known world instead of vital objects which create an intrinsic ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46561]]></link><description><![CDATA[Many pictures turn out to be limp translations of the known world instead of vital objects which create an intrinsic world of their own.
