But this changes everything. The cross and the crucifixion enter into the bliss of paradise. The Son of God and the Son of Man descends into hell to free those who suffer there... To conquer evil, the good must crucify itself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8369</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But would you sing, and rival Orpheus' strain. The wond'ring forests soon should dance again;  The moving mountains hear ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56465]]></link><description><![CDATA[But would you sing, and rival Orpheus' strain. The wond'ring forests soon should dance again;  The moving mountains hear the powerful call.   And headlong streams hand listening in their fall!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56465</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By the time we got a camera it was gone, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30709]]></link><description><![CDATA[By the time we got a camera it was gone,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30709</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Money is a terrible master but an excellent servant. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15992]]></link><description><![CDATA[Money is a terrible master but an excellent servant.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15992</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who fears to speak of Ninety-Eight? Who blushes at the name?  When cowards mock the patriot's fate,   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45788]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who fears to speak of Ninety-Eight? Who blushes at the name?  When cowards mock the patriot's fate,   Who hangs his head for shame?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45788</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The thing I found most striking in monitoring eviction cases was that judges didn't adjust anything (rent) for hurricane damage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32173]]></link><description><![CDATA[The thing I found most striking in monitoring eviction cases was that judges didn't adjust anything (rent) for hurricane damage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32173</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In death a hero, as in life a friend!. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11266]]></link><description><![CDATA[In death a hero, as in life a friend!.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Acting is the expression of a neurotic impulse.

But this, though a sort of love we need, is not the sort we want. We want to be loved for our cleverness, beauty, generosity, fairness, usefulness. The first hint that anyone is offering us the highest love of all is a terrible shock. This is so well recognized that spiteful people will pretend to be loving us with Charity precisely because they know that it will wound us. To say to one who expects a renewal of Affection, Friendship, or Eros, "I forgive you as a Christian" is merely a way of continuing the quarrel. Those who say it are of course lying. But the thing would not be falsely said in order to wound unless, if it were true, it would be wounding.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8525</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Draw your salary before spending it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61069]]></link><description><![CDATA[Draw your salary before spending it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61069</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65950]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65950</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is the little one thinking about? Very wonderful things, no doubt;  Unwritten history!   Unfathomed mystery!  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3636]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is the little one thinking about? Very wonderful things, no doubt;  Unwritten history!   Unfathomed mystery!    Yet he laughs and cries, and eats and drinks,     And chuckles and crows, and nods and winks,      As if his head were as full of kinks       And curious riddles as any sphinx!   - Josiah Gilbert Holland (used pseudonym Timothy Titcomb),]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3636</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even a thief takes ten years to learn his trade. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62484]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even a thief takes ten years to learn his trade.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62484</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Health is the condition of wisdom, and the sign is cheerfulness,--an open and noble temper. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5851]]></link><description><![CDATA[Health is the condition of wisdom, and the sign is cheerfulness,--an open and noble temper.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5851</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is much nicer to be in than an automobile accident, a tight girdle, a higher tax bracket or a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66472]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is much nicer to be in than an automobile accident, a tight girdle, a higher tax bracket or a holding pattern over Philadelphia.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66472</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Impact of economic expansion has finally spread to consumers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39861]]></link><description><![CDATA[Impact of economic expansion has finally spread to consumers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39861</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world does not owe men a living, but business, if it is to fulfill its ideal, owes men an ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45111]]></link><description><![CDATA[The world does not owe men a living, but business, if it is to fulfill its ideal, owes men an opportunity to earn a living.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45111</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A child is a person who is going to carry on what you started.

You find him desperately numerous in the civil service, in the official bureaus. To him government is something given as unconditionally, as absolutely as ocean or hill. He goes on winding the tape that he finds. His imagination has rarely extricated itself from under the administrative machine to gain any sense of what a human, temporary contraption the whole affair is. What he thinks is the heavens above him is nothing but the roof.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46252</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have made the Reich by propaganda. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48426]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have made the Reich by propaganda.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48426</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Peace of mind comes from not wanting to change others. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22602]]></link><description><![CDATA[Peace of mind comes from not wanting to change others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If it's significantly faster than the first mile, the coach should have raised eyebrows. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41795]]></link><description><![CDATA[If it's significantly faster than the first mile, the coach should have raised eyebrows.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41795</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8358]]></link><description><![CDATA[Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8358</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Steadfastness is a noble quality, but unguided by knowledge or humility it becomes rashness or obstinacy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16039]]></link><description><![CDATA[Steadfastness is a noble quality, but unguided by knowledge or humility it becomes rashness or obstinacy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16039</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No university in the world has ever risen to greatness without a correspondingly great library...
