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[In line with this trend, revenue recognition on a number of larger banking projects will now occur later than anticipated, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40005]]></link><description><![CDATA[In line with this trend, revenue recognition on a number of larger banking projects will now occur later than anticipated,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40005</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As our country bled . . . its leader's wife came to this podium piously to call for a new ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32130]]></link><description><![CDATA[As our country bled . . . its leader's wife came to this podium piously to call for a new human order, this when thousands of Filipinos were political prisoners.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32130</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of James Hannington, Bishop of Eastern Equatorial Africa, Martyr in Uganda, 1885  Continuing a short series on prayer: ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8224]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of James Hannington, Bishop of Eastern Equatorial Africa, Martyr in Uganda, 1885  Continuing a short series on prayer:   Madness frequently discovers itself merely by unnecessary deviation from the usual modes of the world. My poor friend Christopher Smart showed the disturbance of his mind, by falling upon his knees, and saying his prayers in the street, or in any other unusual place. Now although, rationally speaking, it is greater madness not to pray at all, than to pray as Smart did, I am afraid there are so many who do not pray, that their understanding is not called in question... I did not think he ought to be shut up. His infirmities were not noxious to society. He insisted on people praying with him; and I'd as lief pray with Kit Smart as any.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8224</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He went like one that hath been stunn'd, And is of sense forlorn:  A sadder and a wiser man, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42799]]></link><description><![CDATA[He went like one that hath been stunn'd, And is of sense forlorn:  A sadder and a wiser man,   He rose the morrow morn.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42799</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The truant Fancy was a wanderer ever. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15281]]></link><description><![CDATA[The truant Fancy was a wanderer ever.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And if I laugh at any mortal thing, 'Tis that I may not weep. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24221]]></link><description><![CDATA[And if I laugh at any mortal thing, 'Tis that I may not weep.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24221</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The qualities of creativity and genius are within you, awaiting your decision to match up with the power of intention. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64023]]></link><description><![CDATA[The qualities of creativity and genius are within you, awaiting your decision to match up with the power of intention.
