It is not so ordinary for men to resolve to be good as to resolve to be rich and great, not so common for men to resolve against sin as to resolve against poverty and suffering. It is not so usual for men to resolve to keep a good conscience as to keep a good place.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7315</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Setting an example is not the main means of influencing others; it is the only means. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14391]]></link><description><![CDATA[Setting an example is not the main means of influencing others; it is the only means.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I dare say I am compelled, unconsciously compelled, now to write volume after volume, as in past years I was ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25372]]></link><description><![CDATA[I dare say I am compelled, unconsciously compelled, now to write volume after volume, as in past years I was compelled to go to sea, voyage after voyage.
