What is lacking in this conception is any sense that a society, an institution, or even a single human being, is an intricate system of fragile inter-relationships, whose complexities are little understood and easily destabilized.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I long, as does every human being, to be at home wherever I find myself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19600]]></link><description><![CDATA[I long, as does every human being, to be at home wherever I find myself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Glossy, efficient prose, garnished with a pinch of irony and a dab of melodrama. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48470]]></link><description><![CDATA[Glossy, efficient prose, garnished with a pinch of irony and a dab of melodrama.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48470</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The weak are not a noble breed.

Their sublime deeds of faith, daring, and self-sacrifice usually spring from questionable motives. The weak hate not wickedness but weakness; and one instance of their hatred of weakness is hatred of self. All the passionate pursuits of the weak are in some degree a striving to escape, blur, or disguise an unwanted self. It is a striving shot through with malice, envy, self-deception, and a host of petty impulses; yet it often culminates in superb achievements.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52367</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If only.

To say that we must wait for the other world, to know the mind of Him who came to this world to give Himself to us, seems to me the foolishness of a worldly and lazy spirit. The Son of God is the teacher of men, giving to them of His Spirit -- that Spirit which manifests the deep things of God, being to a man the mind of Christ. The great heresy of the Church of the present day is unbelief in this Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8251</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My cake is dough, but I'll in among the rest, Out of hope of all but my share of the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13275]]></link><description><![CDATA[My cake is dough, but I'll in among the rest, Out of hope of all but my share of the feast.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do you love me because I'm beautiful or am I beautiful because you love me? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63851]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do you love me because I'm beautiful or am I beautiful because you love me?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63851</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be persuasive we must be believable; to be believable we must be credible; credible we must be truthful. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19665]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be persuasive we must be believable; to be believable we must be credible; credible we must be truthful.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19665</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8667]]></link><description><![CDATA[And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8667</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some circumstantial evidence is very strong, as when you find a trout in milk. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28142]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some circumstantial evidence is very strong, as when you find a trout in milk.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28142</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[America's future will be determined by the home and the school.
