What here is only a tiny flame of secret self-reproach that flickers up occasionally and is quickly smothered, there becomes a scorching fire. What here is no more than a slight ticking sound in our conscience suddenly becomes the trumpet tone of judgment which can no longer be ignored. Lazarus is permitted to see what he believed, but the rich man is compelled to see what he did not believe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6840</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't buy the house, buy the neighborhood. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15935]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't buy the house, buy the neighborhood.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15935</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Wolfe knowes, what the ill beast thinkes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49937]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Wolfe knowes, what the ill beast thinkes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trapeze High Club.
