And unexpressed feelings comeforth later in uglier ways. Psychosomatic illnesses often are thereincarnation of cumulative resentment, deep disappointment anddisillusionment repressed by the Lose/Win mentality. Disproportionate rageor anger, overreaction to minor provocation, and cynicism are otherembodiments of suppressed emotion. People who are constantly repressing,not transcending feelings toward a higher meaning find that it affects thequality of their relationships with others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21499</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The tougher the job, the greater the reward. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15973]]></link><description><![CDATA[The tougher the job, the greater the reward.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15973</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before [it hated] you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4196]]></link><description><![CDATA[If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before [it hated] you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4196</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man is free who is not a master of himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46396]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man is free who is not a master of himself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46396</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A kind heart is a fountain of gladness, making everything in its vicinity freshen into smiles. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66448]]></link><description><![CDATA[A kind heart is a fountain of gladness, making everything in its vicinity freshen into smiles.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66448</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For every bad thing in life, there are more good things to tip the balance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65654]]></link><description><![CDATA[For every bad thing in life, there are more good things to tip the balance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65654</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Contentions fierce, Ardent, and dire, spring from no petty cause. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9971]]></link><description><![CDATA[Contentions fierce, Ardent, and dire, spring from no petty cause.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9971</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pleasure is the greatest incentive to evil. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46684]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pleasure is the greatest incentive to evil.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Through other investigative observations and findings, we were able to actually make the identification of Ms. Aurora Rojas. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33447]]></link><description><![CDATA[Through other investigative observations and findings, we were able to actually make the identification of Ms. Aurora Rojas.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33447</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They tried to get me - I got them first!(suicide by drinking Lysol). ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15222]]></link><description><![CDATA[They tried to get me - I got them first!(suicide by drinking Lysol).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are plenty of teams in every sport that have great players andnever win titles.

Most of the time, those players aren't willing tosacrifice for the greater good of the team.

If therefore we depart without profit, our zeal in frequenting the church will prove our condemnation. That so great a judgment comes not upon you, when ye go hence ponder the things ye have heard, and exercise yourselves in confirming our instruction -- friend with friend, fathers with their children, masters with their slaves -- so that, when ye return hither and hear from us the same counsels, ye may not be ashamed, but rejoice and be glad in the conviction that ye have put into practice the greater part of our exhortation. Not only must we meditate upon these things here -- for this short exhortation sufficeth not to eradicate the evil -- but at home let the husband be reminded of them by the wife, and the wife by the husband, and let an emulation obtain in families to the fulfilment of the divine law.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every time you go out on the ice, there are slight flaws.
