But things cannot pass thus: sooner or later repentance must have a broken and a contrite heart; we must with our blessed Lord go over the brook Cedron, and with Him sweat great drops of sorrow before He can say for us, as He said for Himself: "It is finished.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first degree of folly is to hold ones selfe wise, the second to professe it, the third to despise ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49850]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first degree of folly is to hold ones selfe wise, the second to professe it, the third to despise counsell.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49850</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most important for us is a good spiritual relationship between employees and management. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15920]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most important for us is a good spiritual relationship between employees and management.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15920</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man has lost the capacity to foresee and to forestall.
