Because to influence a person is to give him one's own soul. He does not think his natural thoughts, or burn with his natural passions. His virtures are not real to him.

At first sight, it may seem that they have only to proclaim and declare; but in fact, if their words are to enter men's hearts and bear fruit, they must be the right words, shaped cunningly to pass men's defenses and explode silently and effectually within their minds. This means, in practice, turning a face of flint toward the easy cliche, the well-worn religious cant and phraseology -- dear, no doubt, to the faithful, but utterly meaningless to those outside the fold. It means learning how people are thinking and how they are feeling; it means learning with patience, imagination and ingenuity the way to pierce apathy or blank lack of understanding. I sometimes wonder what hours of prayer and thought lie behind the apparently simple and spontaneous parables of the Gospel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7432</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes it's the smallest decisions that can change your life forever. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5482]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes it's the smallest decisions that can change your life forever.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5482</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yet still there whispers the small voice within, Heard through Gain's silence, and o'er Glory's din;  Whatever creed be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9792]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yet still there whispers the small voice within, Heard through Gain's silence, and o'er Glory's din;  Whatever creed be taught or land be trod,   Man's conscience is the oracle of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9792</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They love, they hate, but cannot do without him. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5624]]></link><description><![CDATA[They love, they hate, but cannot do without him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pleasure blinds (so to speak) the eyes of the mind, and has no fellowship with virtue. [Lat., Voluptas mentis (ut ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46697]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pleasure blinds (so to speak) the eyes of the mind, and has no fellowship with virtue. [Lat., Voluptas mentis (ut ita dicam) praestringit oculos, nec habet ullum cum virtute commercium.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12859]]></link><description><![CDATA[As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What each must seek in his life never was on land or sea.
