Its complete bondage to nature has enclosed the mind and spirit of man in a fast prison out of which, try as he may, he can find no way of escape. The inability to perceive any longer the reality of things invisible and unseen is a sickness of the soul which cries out to be cured. The only way to dispel the darkness of the present age and liberate it from the prison within which it has become bound is to restore the proper relationship of nature to supernature and of time to eternity as an essential feature of external reality. Until this can be accomplished, there is really very little that the Church or Christianity in general has to offer to this age.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The man who promises everything is sure to fulfil nothing, and everyone who promises too much is in danger of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1169]]></link><description><![CDATA[The man who promises everything is sure to fulfil nothing, and everyone who promises too much is in danger of using evil means in order to carry out his promises, and is already on the road to perdition.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1169</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anger seek it prey,-- Something to tear with sharp-edged tooth and claw,  Like not to go off hungry, leaving ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2538]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anger seek it prey,-- Something to tear with sharp-edged tooth and claw,  Like not to go off hungry, leaving Love   To feast on milk and honeycomb at will.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2538</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Civilizations die from suicide, not by murder. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22466]]></link><description><![CDATA[Civilizations die from suicide, not by murder.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22466</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The hole in the wall is primarily to prevent babies from dying in the street. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39546]]></link><description><![CDATA[The hole in the wall is primarily to prevent babies from dying in the street.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39546</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The privilege of absurdity, to which no living creature is subject but men only. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/210]]></link><description><![CDATA[The privilege of absurdity, to which no living creature is subject but men only.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/210</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marriage is like life - it is a field of battle, not a bed of roses. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64869]]></link><description><![CDATA[Marriage is like life - it is a field of battle, not a bed of roses.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64869</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Francis Xavier, Apostle of the Indies, Missionary, 1552  There is a curious betrayal of the popular estimate ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7271]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Francis Xavier, Apostle of the Indies, Missionary, 1552  There is a curious betrayal of the popular estimate of this world and the world to come, in the honour paid to those who cast away life in battle, or sap it slowly in the pursuit of wealth or honours, and the contempt expressed for those who compromise life on behalf of souls, for which Christ died. Whenever, by exertion in any unselfish cause, health is broken or fortune impaired, or influential friends estranged, the follower of Christ is called an enthusiast, a fanatic, or even more plainly a man of unsound mind. He may be comforted by remembering that Jesus was said to be beside Himself when teaching and healing left Him not leisure even to eat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7271</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now the noisy winds are still; April's coming up the hill!  All the spring is in her train,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2980]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now the noisy winds are still; April's coming up the hill!  All the spring is in her train,   Led by shining ranks of rain;    Pit, pat, patter, clatter,     Sudden sun and clatter patter!      . . . .       All things ready with a will,        April's coming up the hill!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Humans can learn to like anything, that's why we are such a successful species.
