And every human heart that breaks,  In prison-cell or yard, Is as that broken box that gave  Its treasure to the Lord, And filled the unclean leper's house  With the scent of costliest nard. Ah! happy they whose hearts can break  And peace of pardon win! How else may man make straight his plan  And cleanse his soul from sin? How else but through a broken heart  May Lord Christ enter in?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reparation for our rights at home, and security against the like future violations. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54273]]></link><description><![CDATA[Reparation for our rights at home, and security against the like future violations.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54273</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Five years ago, there was the crossover energy where all of a sudden, 'Time Magazine' and 'Newsweek' were saying things ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35220]]></link><description><![CDATA[Five years ago, there was the crossover energy where all of a sudden, 'Time Magazine' and 'Newsweek' were saying things like the 'Latino Wave was coming.'
