Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul. You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope as old as your despair. In the central place of every heart there is a recording chamber. So long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer and courage, so long are you young. When your heart is covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then, and then only, are you grown old. And then, indeed as the ballad says, you just fade away.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62528</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["He shall not die, by God," cried by uncle Toby.

Being in the minority, he has no other choice. Failing this duty, he sinks into oblivion. Society, on the other hand, has no obligation toward the poet. A majority by definition, society thinks of itself as having other options than reading verses, no matter how well written. Its failure to do so results in its sinking to that level of locution at which society falls easy prey to a demagogue or a tyrant. This is society's own equivalent of oblivion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25369</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who holds the hook is aware in what waters many fish are swimming. [Lat., Qui sustinet hamos,  Novit, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16083]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who holds the hook is aware in what waters many fish are swimming. [Lat., Qui sustinet hamos,  Novit, quae multo pisce natentur aquae.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16083</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a Providence that protects idiots, drunkards, children and the United States of America. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51905]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a Providence that protects idiots, drunkards, children and the United States of America.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51905</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Fox Who Had Lost His TailA fox caught in a trap escaped, but in so doing lost his tail. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1564]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Fox Who Had Lost His TailA fox caught in a trap escaped, but in so doing lost his tail. Thereafter, feeling his life a burden from the shame and ridicule to which he was exposed, he schemed to convince all the other Foxes that being tailless was much more attractive, thus making up for his own deprivation. He assembled a good many Foxes and publicly advised them to cut off their tails, saying that they would not only look much better without them, but that they would get rid of the weight of the brush, which was a very great inconvenience. One of them interrupting him said, If you had not yourself lost your tail, my friend, you would not thus counsel us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once the ref blows his whistle, I yell out, 'That's a terrible call' and then I start booing with everybody ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42586]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once the ref blows his whistle, I yell out, 'That's a terrible call' and then I start booing with everybody else.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42586</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think what motivates people is not great hate, but great love for other people. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66266]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think what motivates people is not great hate, but great love for other people.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Imagine books and music and movies being filtered and homogenized.
