That book serves best which early makes itself unnecessary, just as a signpost serves best after it is forgotten, after the traveler has arrived safely at his desired haven. The work of a good book is to incite the reader to moral action, to turn his eves toward God and urge him forward. Beyond that it cannot go.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7176</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why wasn't someone on top of this years ago? I don't have an answer to that.
