To justify Christianity because it provides a foundation of morality, instead of showing the necessity of Christian morality from the truth of Christianity, is a very dangerous inversion; and we may reflect that a good deal of the attention of totalitarian states has been devoted with a steadfastness of purpose not always found in democracies, to providing their national life with a foundation of morality -- the wrong kind, perhaps, but a good deal more of it. It is not enthusiasm, but dogma, that differentiates a Christian from a pagan society.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He is as much a part of the Derby tradition as the Twin Spires themselves, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38754]]></link><description><![CDATA[He is as much a part of the Derby tradition as the Twin Spires themselves,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38754</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think this race is going to be aggressive.

It is surely the becoming of a person. Are we not, for most of our lives, marking time? Most of our being is at rest, unlived. In passion, the body and the spirit seek expression outside of self. Passion is all that is other from self. Sex is only interesting when it releases passion. The more extreme and the more expressed that passion is, the more unbearable does life seem without it. It reminds us that if passion dies or is denied, we are partly dead and that soon, come what may, we will be wholly so.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2170</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men rarely (if ever) manage to dream up a god superior to themselves.
