Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight For the ends of Being and ideal Grace. I love thee to the level of everyday's Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light. I love thee freely, as men strive for Right; I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise. I love thee with the passion put to use In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith. I love thee with a love I seemed to lose With my lost saints, -I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life! - and, if God choose, I shall but love thee better after death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25759</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Associate with people in such a manner, that they weep for you when you die and long for you if ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36721]]></link><description><![CDATA[Associate with people in such a manner, that they weep for you when you die and long for you if you are alive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36721</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think that the flesh is necessarily treacherous, evil, bad.

It is cantankerous, and it is independent. The idea of independence is the key. It really is like colonialism. The colonies suddenly decide that they can and should exist with their own personality and should detach from the control of the mother country. At first the colony is perceived as being treacherous. It's a betrayal. Ultimately, it can be seen as the separation of a partner that could be very valuable as an equal rather than as something you dominate.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4450</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Frederick Denison Maurice, Priest, teacher, 1872  God has brought us into this time; He, and not ourselves ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6202]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Frederick Denison Maurice, Priest, teacher, 1872  God has brought us into this time; He, and not ourselves or some dark demon. If we are not fit to cope with that which He has prepared for us, we would have been utterly unfit for any condition that we imagine for ourselves. We are to live and wrestle in this time, and in no other. Let us humbly, tremblingly, manfully look at it, and we shall not wish that the sun could go back its ten degrees, or that we could go back with it. If easy times are departed, it is that the difficult times may make us more in earnest; that they may teach us not to depend on ourselves. If easy belief is impossible, it is that we may learn what belief is, and in whom it is to be placed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6202</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May you live your life as if the maxim of your actions were to become universal law. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26593]]></link><description><![CDATA[May you live your life as if the maxim of your actions were to become universal law.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where the suspect poses no immediate threat to the officer and no threat to others, the harm resulting from the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46879]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where the suspect poses no immediate threat to the officer and no threat to others, the harm resulting from the failing to apprehend him does not justify the use of deadly force to do so.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46879</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even speed, when we are anxious, seems like delay. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51590]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even speed, when we are anxious, seems like delay.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love's mind of judgment rarely hath a taste: Wings and no eyes figure unheedy haste. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51426]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love's mind of judgment rarely hath a taste: Wings and no eyes figure unheedy haste.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51426</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ninety percent of the politicians give the other ten percent a bad reputation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47351]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ninety percent of the politicians give the other ten percent a bad reputation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47351</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Opportunity only knocks once ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45037]]></link><description><![CDATA[Opportunity only knocks once]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45037</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can always draw as well as you know how to.
