Now are our brows bound with victorious wreaths, Our bruised arms hung up for monuments, Our stern alarums changed to merry meetings, Our dreadful marches to delightful measures. Grim-visaged war hath smoothed his wrinkled front; And now, instead of mounting barbed steeds To fright the souls of fearful adversaries, He capers nimbly in a lady's chamber To the lascivious pleasing of a lute. But I, that am not shaped for sportive tricks, Nor made to court an amorous looking-glass; I, that am rudely stamped, and want love's majesty To strut before a wanton ambling nymph; I, that am curtailed of this fair proportion, Cheated of feature by dissembling nature, Deformed, unfinished, sent before my time Into this breathing world, scarce half made up, And that so lamely and unfashionable That dogs bark at me as I halt by them,— Why, I, in this weak piping time of peace, Have no delight to pass away the time, Unless to spy my shadow in the sun. -King Richard III. Act i. Sc. 1.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55997</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life's to short for chess. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28027]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life's to short for chess.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28027</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One may as well dam for water tanks the people's cathedrals and churches, for no holier temple has ever been ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66179]]></link><description><![CDATA[One may as well dam for water tanks the people's cathedrals and churches, for no holier temple has ever been consecrated by the heart of man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66179</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What we wanted to show was that this man, after 30 years, decides he wants to die and he doesn't ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28765]]></link><description><![CDATA[What we wanted to show was that this man, after 30 years, decides he wants to die and he doesn't seem to us like someone who was unstable, as some people have suggested.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28765</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those are some of the steps taken to make sure the Visa Waiver Program ( search ) is a safe ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37280]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those are some of the steps taken to make sure the Visa Waiver Program ( search ) is a safe and effective way to letting people get into the United States, because obviously we don't want to choke off travel here altogether.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37280</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We did receive yesterday a letter from the Competition Bureau of Canada stating that it has begun an investigation into ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36779]]></link><description><![CDATA[We did receive yesterday a letter from the Competition Bureau of Canada stating that it has begun an investigation into the activities of carriers that are engaged in the provision of international air cargo services to and from Canada.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36779</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[W'en you see a man in woe, Walk right up and say "hullo."  Say "hullo" and "how d'ye do," ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19951]]></link><description><![CDATA[W'en you see a man in woe, Walk right up and say "hullo."  Say "hullo" and "how d'ye do,"   "How's the world a-usin' you?"    . . . .     W'en you travel through the strange      Country t'other side the range,       Then the souls you've cheered will know        Who you be, an' say "hullo."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19951</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The main reason is to demonstrate to students the importance and seriousness of the test.
