For what a man had rather were true he more readily believes. Therefore he rejects difficult things from impatience of research; sober things, because they narrow hope; the deeper things of nature, from superstition; the light of experience, from arrogance and pride; things not commonly believed, out of deference to the opinion of the vulgar. Numberless in short are the ways, and sometimes imperceptible, in which the affections color and infect the understanding.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52376</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With what presumption have we dared to voice "Thank You for home (although we hold the deed), Our acre, trees, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6800]]></link><description><![CDATA[With what presumption have we dared to voice "Thank You for home (although we hold the deed), Our acre, trees, and flowers (ours by choice), Our faithful dog and cat (though it's agreed No one can own the latter), each good book (A gift, or purchased), all else we foresaw That we should cherish, and have made to look Ours by possession (nine points of the law)."

Fear is nobler than sensuality. Fear is better than no God, better than a god made with hands. In that fear lay deep hidden the sense of the infinite. The worship of fear is true, though very low; and though not acceptable to God in itself -- for only the worship of spirit and of truth is acceptable to him -- yet even in His sight it is precious. For he regards men not as they are merely, but as they shall be; not as they shall be merely, but as they are now growing, or capable of growing, towards that image after which He made them that they might grow to it. Therefore a thousand stages, each in itself all but valueless, are of inestimable worth as the necessary and connected gradations of an infinite progress. A condition which of declension would indicate a devil, may of growth indicate a saint.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can observe a lot by just watching. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66855]]></link><description><![CDATA[You can observe a lot by just watching.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66855</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pity and need Make all flesh kin.
