We are met to celebrate this day. Washington is the mightiest name on earth--long since mightiest in the cause of civil liberty; still mightiest in moral reformation. On that name an eulogy is expected. It can not be. To add brightness to the sun or glory to the name of Washington is alike impossible. Let none attempt it. In solemn awe pronounce the name and in its naked, deathless splendor leave it shining on.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61249</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I know the only reason I made it anywhere in hockey was because I was a fighter.

Probably all you'll think about him is that he seemed a cheerful, intelligent chap who took a real interest in what you said to him. If you do dislike him, it will be because you feel a bit envious of anyone who seems to enjoy life so easily. He won't be thinking about himself at all. There I must stop. If anyone would like to acquire humility, I can, I think, tell him the first step. The first step is to realize that one is proud. And a biggish step, too. At least, nothing whatever can be done before it. If you think you're not conceited, it means you are very conceited indeed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Religion has not civilized man, man has civilized religion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53574]]></link><description><![CDATA[Religion has not civilized man, man has civilized religion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The countenance is the portrait of the soul, and the eyes mark its intentions. [Lat., Imago animi vultus est, indices ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57281]]></link><description><![CDATA[The countenance is the portrait of the soul, and the eyes mark its intentions. [Lat., Imago animi vultus est, indices oculi.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Try to be like the turtle - at ease in your own shell. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64310]]></link><description><![CDATA[Try to be like the turtle - at ease in your own shell.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64310</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A lot of things we're seeing right now are very familiar pieces, but they're done in a new fabric or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36160]]></link><description><![CDATA[A lot of things we're seeing right now are very familiar pieces, but they're done in a new fabric or color.
