But there is a saner sense in which the Bible -- since it is, after all, literature -- cannot properly be read except as literature, and the different parts of it as the different sorts of literature they are. Most emphatically, the Psalms must be read as poems -- as lyrics, with all the licenses and all the formalities, the hyperboles, the emotional rather than logical connections, which are proper to lyric poetry... Otherwise we shall miss what is in them and think we see what is not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8542</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is neither good nor bad, but thinking makes it so. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59148]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is neither good nor bad, but thinking makes it so.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59148</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We then resorted to watching them through a telescope and marked the places where they landed to pick up sample ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33010]]></link><description><![CDATA[We then resorted to watching them through a telescope and marked the places where they landed to pick up sample droppings for viral tests,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33010</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nowhere in the world where sleep is so deep as in the libraries of the House of Commons. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56627]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nowhere in the world where sleep is so deep as in the libraries of the House of Commons.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Or will you think, my friend, your bus'ness done When, of a hundred thorns, you pull out one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50929]]></link><description><![CDATA[Or will you think, my friend, your bus'ness done When, of a hundred thorns, you pull out one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beauty, more than bitterness, makes the heart break. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3813]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beauty, more than bitterness, makes the heart break.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3813</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's true that heroes are inspiring, but mustn't they also do some rescuing if they are to be worthy of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19276]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's true that heroes are inspiring, but mustn't they also do some rescuing if they are to be worthy of their name?

They had shortcomings enough, it is true, and divisions and scandals not a few, for even apostolic times were no golden age of purity and primitive simplicity. Yet we can see that their fullness of life, and hope, and promise for the future, were a new sort of power in the world. Within their own limits they had solved almost by the way the social problem which baffled Rome, and baffles Europe still. They had lifted woman to her rightful place, restored the dignity of labour, abolished beggary, and drawn the sting of slavery. The secret of the revolution is that the selfishness of race and class were forgotten in the Supper of the Lord, and a new basis for society found in love of the visible image of God in men for whom Christ died.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The pansy freaked with jet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45443]]></link><description><![CDATA[The pansy freaked with jet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45443</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The way I see things, the way I see life, I see it as a struggle.
