All your insight only leads you to the knowledge that it is not in yourselves that you will discover the true and the good. The philosophers promised them to you, and have not been able to keep their promises... Your principal maladies are pride, which cuts you off from God, and sensuality, which binds you to the earth; and they have done nothing but foster at least one of these maladies. If they have given you God for your object, it has only been to pander to your pride; they have made you think that you were like Him and resembled Him by your nature. And those who have grasped the vanity of such a pretension have cast you down into the other abyss by making you believe that your nature was like that of the beasts of the field, and have led you to seek your good in lust, which is the lot of animals.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7816</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is sometimes necessary to lie damnably in the interests of the nation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44288]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is sometimes necessary to lie damnably in the interests of the nation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44288</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would rather be a coward than brave because people hurt you when you are brave. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10298]]></link><description><![CDATA[I would rather be a coward than brave because people hurt you when you are brave.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10298</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Delay is preferable to error. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11833]]></link><description><![CDATA[Delay is preferable to error.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11833</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Boniface (Wynfrith) of Crediton, Archbishop of Mainz, Apostle of Germany, Martyr, 754  God has no grandchildren. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7081]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Boniface (Wynfrith) of Crediton, Archbishop of Mainz, Apostle of Germany, Martyr, 754  God has no grandchildren.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7081</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All complaine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49098]]></link><description><![CDATA[All complaine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49098</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Heresie is the school of pride. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49492]]></link><description><![CDATA[Heresie is the school of pride.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49492</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our biggest accomplishment has been to consistently hit timeline commitments. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29282]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our biggest accomplishment has been to consistently hit timeline commitments.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art must take reality by surprise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53035]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art must take reality by surprise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53035</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Very little is known of the Canadian country since it is rarely visited by anyone but the Queen and illiterate ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47625]]></link><description><![CDATA[Very little is known of the Canadian country since it is rarely visited by anyone but the Queen and illiterate sport fishermen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47625</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are extending their mission through September 2006 to take advantage of having such capable resources still healthy and in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35710]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are extending their mission through September 2006 to take advantage of having such capable resources still healthy and in excellent position to continue their adventures.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35710</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A compliment is like a kiss through a veil. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2219]]></link><description><![CDATA[A compliment is like a kiss through a veil.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Get the facts, or the facts will get you.

If his atlas tells him the world is flat he will not sail near what he believes to be the edge of our planet for fear of falling off. If his maps include a fountain of eternal youth, a Ponce de Leon will go off in quest of it. If someone digs up yellow dirt that looks like gold, he will for a time act exactly as if he has found gold. The way in which the world is imagined determines at any particular moment what men will do. It does not determine what they will achieve. It determines their effort, their feelings, their hopes, not their accomplishments and results.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51995</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Education is the period during which you are being instructed by somebody you do not know, about something you do ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13590]]></link><description><![CDATA[Education is the period during which you are being instructed by somebody you do not know, about something you do not want to know.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness is realizing that nothing is too important. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64556]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happiness is realizing that nothing is too important.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64556</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Today, you have 100% of your life left. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22411]]></link><description><![CDATA[Today, you have 100% of your life left.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22411</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything ultimately fails, for we die, and that is either the penultimate failure or our most enigmatical achievement. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44189]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything ultimately fails, for we die, and that is either the penultimate failure or our most enigmatical achievement.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The biggest difference between time and space is that you can't reuse time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14515]]></link><description><![CDATA[The biggest difference between time and space is that you can't reuse time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14515</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The International Brigades provided a shock force while the Republic trained and organized an army from an assemblage of individuals. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30176]]></link><description><![CDATA[The International Brigades provided a shock force while the Republic trained and organized an army from an assemblage of individuals.

What, we are really asking, is the purpose of suffering? It seems purposeless. Our question of the why of evil assumes the view that the world has a purpose, and what we want to know is how suffering fits into and advances this purpose. The modern view is that suffering has no purpose because nothing that happens has any purpose: the world is run by causes, not by purposes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6387</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Listen, my friend, there are two races of beings.

The masses teeming and happy -- common clay, if you like -- eating, breeding, working, counting their pennies; people who just live; ordinary people; people you can't imagine dead.
