They know indeed that they are mortal, but they do not feel it. The truth rests in their understandings, and cannot gain admission into their hearts. This speculative persuasion is altogether different from that strong practical impression of the infinite importance of eternal things, which, attended with a proportionate sense of the shortness and uncertainty of all below, while it prompts to activity from a conviction that the night cometh when no man can work, produces a certain firmness of texture, which hardens us against the buffetings of fortune, and prevents our being very deeply penetrated by the cares and interests, the good or evil, of this transitory state.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7185</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man falls in love through his eyes, a woman through her ears. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25724]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man falls in love through his eyes, a woman through her ears.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25724</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66270]]></link><description><![CDATA[All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66270</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The work of art, just like any fragment of human life considered in its deepest meaning, seems to me devoid ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3360]]></link><description><![CDATA[The work of art, just like any fragment of human life considered in its deepest meaning, seems to me devoid of value if it does not offer the hardness, the rigidity, the regularity, the luster on every interior and exterior facet, of the crystal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3360</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is work unless you'd rather be doing something else. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66143]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is work unless you'd rather be doing something else.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66143</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We look at the dance to impart the sensation of living in an affirmation of life, to energize the spectator ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11006]]></link><description><![CDATA[We look at the dance to impart the sensation of living in an affirmation of life, to energize the spectator into keener awareness of the vigor, the mystery, the humor, the variety, and the wonder of life.

The Church of the Lord Jesus should be a group of those who are redeemed and bound together on the basis of true doctrine. But subsequently they should show together a substantial "sociological healing" of the breaches between men, which have come about because of... man's sin. The Christian sociological position is that the sociological problems which we find... are a result of the separation that has come between men because of sin.
