I hope I am not wrong in saying that there is nothing Christian in such an attitude. It savours of the Paganism that saw behind the world a kind of ironical malice; that made Polycrates throw his ring into the sea, and called the Furies the Kindly Ones, if haply they might be so appeased.   But we stand outside this world of darkness, for we have learnt that all things were created by the eternal Word, who is Christ Jesus. We know, in the Pauline phrase, that it is in Him that the whole universal order of things consists or holds together. Those who have come to know that, know in consequence that they are in their Father's house. It is a big house, and they have begun to explore only a little of it. It has great reaches, and some of them are still shadowy. But it is His house, all of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6868</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Privacy is the right to be alone--the most comprehensive of rights, and the right most valued by civilized man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48280]]></link><description><![CDATA[Privacy is the right to be alone--the most comprehensive of rights, and the right most valued by civilized man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48280</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The idea of thanking staff should mean giving them something that they would never buy for themselves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22580]]></link><description><![CDATA[The idea of thanking staff should mean giving them something that they would never buy for themselves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22580</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art imitates nature, and necessity is the mother of invention. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44047]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art imitates nature, and necessity is the mother of invention.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
