This sentiment sometimes has even the hardiness to insinuate and maintain itself under the guise of extraordinary concern for practical religion; but it soon discovers the falsehood of this pretension, and betrays its real nature. The expedient, indeed, of attaining to superiority in practice by not wasting any of the attention on the internal principles from which alone practice can flow, is about as reasonable, and will answer about as well, as the economy of an architect who should account it mere prodigality to expend any of his materials in laying foundation, from an idea that they might be more usefully applied to the raising of the superstructure. We know what would be the fate of such an edifice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6927</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pleasure to me is wonder—the unexplored, the unexpected, the thing that is hidden and the changeless thing that lurks behind ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65978]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pleasure to me is wonder—the unexplored, the unexpected, the thing that is hidden and the changeless thing that lurks behind superficial mutability.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65978</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The English have no respect for their language, and will not teach their children to speak it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24032]]></link><description><![CDATA[The English have no respect for their language, and will not teach their children to speak it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24032</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Energetic action on debt would make a radical difference to the prospects of many of the poorest countries in the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15757]]></link><description><![CDATA[Energetic action on debt would make a radical difference to the prospects of many of the poorest countries in the world, at no practical cost to creditor countries.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15757</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As a child, one looks for compliments.
