Just as the degree to which, in daily life, I feel the emotion of fear has very little to do with my rational judgment of the danger. I'd sooner have really nasty seas when I'm in an open boat than look down in perfect (actual) safety from the edge of a cliff. Similarly, I have confessed ghastly uncharities with less reluctance than small unmentionables -- or those sins which happen to be ungentlemanly as well as unchristian. Our emotional reactions to our own behaviour are of limited ethical significance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8523</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, it's a snug little island! A right little, tight little island! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23082]]></link><description><![CDATA[O, it's a snug little island! A right little, tight little island!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23082</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Truth is confirmed by inspection and delay; falsehood by haste and uncertainty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18792]]></link><description><![CDATA[Truth is confirmed by inspection and delay; falsehood by haste and uncertainty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18792</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The surest cure for vanity is loneliness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25473]]></link><description><![CDATA[The surest cure for vanity is loneliness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25473</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He makes a solitude, and calls it peace. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48741]]></link><description><![CDATA[He makes a solitude, and calls it peace.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48741</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a road from the eye to heart that does not go through the intellect. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14812]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a road from the eye to heart that does not go through the intellect.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What we do not understand we do not possess. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47782]]></link><description><![CDATA[What we do not understand we do not possess.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47782</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[The Church] sees that human life must be lived in the quite fearless recognition of this insecurity of relationship between ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6747]]></link><description><![CDATA[[The Church] sees that human life must be lived in the quite fearless recognition of this insecurity of relationship between one man and another. Now, once again may I ask you the question, Is the Church cruel when she points this out, and demands that men should see it and take account of it in all the arrangements of this life? Surely the cruelty lies with those who talk glibly about the brotherhood of man, and superficially about peace, and romantically about marriage, as though the disturbances in Church and state and family were introduced into human life by a few evil-minded men. This is the real cruelty. How will you face up later to your married life, to your administration of affairs, to your life in the Church, in fact to any real part of your lives, if you are taught to think that your neighbour will or ought to agree with you in all points, will accept your solutions of his problems, will in fact be a reflection of your image? Once we get this stuff and nonsense into our heads, we shall never be able to live with anyone or with any group of men. We shall sulk when we are crossed, or run away from the Other -- for Other they are. We shall certainly remove ourselves from the Church when we find it full of friction and yet proclaiming the love of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6747</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most of the change we think we see in life Is due to truths being in and out of favor. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57042]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most of the change we think we see in life Is due to truths being in and out of favor.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When a friend is in trouble, don’t annoy him by asking if there is anything you can do.
