Now are our brows bound with victorious wreaths, Our bruised arms hung up for monuments, Our stern alarums changed to merry meetings, Our dreadful marches to delightful measures. Grim-visaged war hath smoothed his wrinkled front; And now, instead of mounting barbed steeds To fright the souls of fearful adversaries, He capers nimbly in a lady's chamber To the lascivious pleasing of a lute. But I, that am not shaped for sportive tricks, Nor made to court an amorous looking-glass; I, that am rudely stamped, and want love's majesty To strut before a wanton ambling nymph; I, that am curtailed of this fair proportion, Cheated of feature by dissembling nature, Deformed, unfinished, sent before my time Into this breathing world, scarce half made up, And that so lamely and unfashionable That dogs bark at me as I halt by them,— Why, I, in this weak piping time of peace, Have no delight to pass away the time, Unless to spy my shadow in the sun. -King Richard III. Act i. Sc. 1.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55997</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As quick as lightning, in the breach Just in the place where honour's lodged,  As wise philosophers have judged, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19715]]></link><description><![CDATA[As quick as lightning, in the breach Just in the place where honour's lodged,  As wise philosophers have judged,   Because a kick in that place more    Hurts honour than deep wounds before.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19715</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In delay there lies no plenty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48308]]></link><description><![CDATA[In delay there lies no plenty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There was speech in their dumbness, language in their very gesture. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24016]]></link><description><![CDATA[There was speech in their dumbness, language in their very gesture.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24016</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The chains of habit are too weak to be felt until they are too strong to be broken. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18548]]></link><description><![CDATA[The chains of habit are too weak to be felt until they are too strong to be broken.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18548</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We didn't have to tell the kids anything.
