From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,  Much pleasure, then from thee much more, must flow,  And soonest our best men with thee do go,  Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery.

Why swell'st thou then? One short sleep past, we wake eternally,  And Death shall be no more: Death, thou shalt die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8096</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anger is a symptom, a way of cloaking and expressing feelings too awful to experience directly — hurt, bitterness, grief, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2572]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anger is a symptom, a way of cloaking and expressing feelings too awful to experience directly — hurt, bitterness, grief, and, mostof all, fear.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[History is a gallery of pictures in which there are few originals and many copies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19444]]></link><description><![CDATA[History is a gallery of pictures in which there are few originals and many copies.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19444</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you take stuff from one writer it's plagiarism; but when you take it from many writers, it's research. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9445]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you take stuff from one writer it's plagiarism; but when you take it from many writers, it's research.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9445</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who will make a doore of gold must knock a naile every day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50107]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who will make a doore of gold must knock a naile every day.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50107</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wert thou all that I wish thee, great, glorious and free, First flower of the earth, and first gem of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61787]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wert thou all that I wish thee, great, glorious and free, First flower of the earth, and first gem of the sea.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61787</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We will miss him as a distinguished religious figure, who devoted his life to defending the values of peace, freedom ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41290]]></link><description><![CDATA[We will miss him as a distinguished religious figure, who devoted his life to defending the values of peace, freedom and equality.
