They should have led us to feel that it was a solemn duty, not to conceal, but to bring forward all the evidence which proves, not that one country is better than another, or one portion of the church better than another, but that there is a principle of decay, a tendency to apostasy in all, and that no comfort can come from merely balancing symptoms of good here against symptoms of evil there, no comfort from considering whether we are a little less contentious, a little less idolatrous than our neighbors.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6995</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't get in life what you want; you get in life what you are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21339]]></link><description><![CDATA[You don't get in life what you want; you get in life what you are.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21339</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Software companies have sold off aggressively but some information technology managers have indicated a willingness to spend in that area. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28342]]></link><description><![CDATA[Software companies have sold off aggressively but some information technology managers have indicated a willingness to spend in that area.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28342</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the friendship of two, the patience of one is required. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45737]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the friendship of two, the patience of one is required.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45737</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When your throat is parched with thirst, do you desire a cup of gold? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50389]]></link><description><![CDATA[When your throat is parched with thirst, do you desire a cup of gold?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no forgiveness in nature. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63335]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no forgiveness in nature.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63335</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've just learned about his illness.
