When he failed to heal their disputes by his exhortations, he determined to give them a practical illustration of the evils of disunion; and for this purpose he one day told them to bring him a bundle of sticks. When they had done so, he placed the faggot into the hands of each of them in succession, and ordered them to break it in pieces. They tried with all their strength, and were not able to do it. He next opened the faggot, took the sticks separately, one by one, and again put them into his sons' hands, upon which they broke them easily. He then addressed them in these words: My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this faggot, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies; but if you are divided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All men's souls are immortal, but the souls of the righteous are immortal and divine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66767]]></link><description><![CDATA[All men's souls are immortal, but the souls of the righteous are immortal and divine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66767</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unless we know the difference between flowers and weeds, we are not fit to take care of a garden.

They are the questions asked most frequently and answered most inadequately, the ones that reveal their true natures slowly, reluctantly, most often against your will. -Ingrid Bengis.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12245</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The art of art, the glory of expression and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24640]]></link><description><![CDATA[The art of art, the glory of expression and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In dreams and in love there are no impossibilities. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25725]]></link><description><![CDATA[In dreams and in love there are no impossibilities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25725</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What one has, one ought to use; and whatever he does he should do with all his might. [Lat., Quod ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/500]]></link><description><![CDATA[What one has, one ought to use; and whatever he does he should do with all his might. [Lat., Quod est, eo decet uti: et quicquid agas, agere pro viribus.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/500</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be poor and independent is very nearly an impossibility. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20665]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be poor and independent is very nearly an impossibility.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20665</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In some airports where a change of terminals is needed, that time can run upwards of two hours.
