It has neither accorded him a superior status to sustain his confidence nor made it easy for him to acquire an unquestioned sense of social usefulness. For he derives his sense of usefulness mainly from directing, instructing, and planning- from minding other people's business- and is bound to feel superfluous and neglected where people believe themselves competent to manage individual and communal affairs, and are impatient of supervision and regulation. A free society is as much a threat to the intellectual's sense of worth as an automated economy is to the workingman's sense of worth. Any social order that can function with a minimum of leadership will be anathema to the intellectual.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47620</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mind still longs for what it has missed, and loses itself in the contemplation of the past. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50835]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mind still longs for what it has missed, and loses itself in the contemplation of the past.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50835</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only way to spend New Year’s Eve is either quietly with friends or in a brothel.

When summarized in a few neat words or phrases, these gems of wisdom become substitutes for thought, and gradually take on much of the status of revealed truth. Occasionally, some iconoclast sees fit to challenge one of them, and a brief flurry ensues, after which things go on about as before. It is easy to think of plenty of ideas that are passing, if they have not already passed, beyond the stage of effective discussion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52062</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Birinus, Bishop of Dorchester (Oxon), Apostle of Wessex, 650   "Homesickness for the [One True Church]" is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8574]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Birinus, Bishop of Dorchester (Oxon), Apostle of Wessex, 650   "Homesickness for the [One True Church]" is genuine and legitimate only in so far as it is a disquietude at the fact that we have lost and forgotten Christ, and with Him have lost the unity of the Church. Thus we must be on our guard, all along the line, lest the motives which stir us today lead us to a quest that looks past Him. Indeed, however rightful and urgent those motives are, we could well leave them out of our reckoning. We shall do well to realize that in themselves they are well-meaning but merely human desires, and that we can have no final certainty that they are rightful, no unanswerable claim for their fulfillment. Unless we regard them with a measure of holy indifference, we are ill placed for a quest after the unity of the Church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Honor and glory are indeed due to God and to Him alone, but He will accept neither of them if ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8075]]></link><description><![CDATA[Honor and glory are indeed due to God and to Him alone, but He will accept neither of them if they be not preserved in the honey of love. Love is sufficient of itself; it pleases by itself and on its own account. Love seeks no cause beyond itself and no fruit. It is its own fruit, its own enjoyment. I love because I love; I love that I may love. Love is a great thing provided it recurs to its beginning, returns to its origin, and draws always from that Fountain which is perpetually in flood. Of all the feelings and affections of the soul, love is the only one by which the creature, though not on equal terms, is able to respond to the Creator and to repay what it has received from Him. For when God loves us He desires nothing but to be loved. He loves for no other reason, indeed, than that He may be loved, knowing that by their love itself those who love Him are blessed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8075</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Silence is as full of potential wisdom and wit as the unhewn marble of a great sculpture. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/952]]></link><description><![CDATA[Silence is as full of potential wisdom and wit as the unhewn marble of a great sculpture.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are average athletes, then there are above-average athletes.
