I love thee with the passion put to use In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith. I love thee with a love I seemed to lose With my lost saints, -I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life! - and, if God choose, I shall but love thee better after death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25759</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/644]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/644</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is mold in the classroom.
