These are all vilifying distinctions, mortifying preferences, and exclude all ideas of esteem and regard. Whoever is had (as it is called) in company for the sake of any one thing singly, is singly that thing, and will never be considered in any other light; consequently never respected, let his merits be what they will.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most water conservation measures can save our customers money both in the short and long runs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39691]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most water conservation measures can save our customers money both in the short and long runs.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39691</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness; and knows that yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14192]]></link><description><![CDATA[The timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness; and knows that yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14192</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anger is a killing thing: it kills the man who angers, for each rage leaves him less than he had ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63937]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anger is a killing thing: it kills the man who angers, for each rage leaves him less than he had been before - it takes something from him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A subtle thought that is in error may yet give rise to fruitful inquiry that can establish truths of great ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60335]]></link><description><![CDATA[A subtle thought that is in error may yet give rise to fruitful inquiry that can establish truths of great value.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60335</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rome, Rome, thou art no more As thou hast been!  On thy seven hills of yore   Thou ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54406]]></link><description><![CDATA[Rome, Rome, thou art no more As thou hast been!  On thy seven hills of yore   Thou sat'st a queen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54406</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Then the whining schoolboy, with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like snail  Unwillingly to school. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58023]]></link><description><![CDATA[Then the whining schoolboy, with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like snail  Unwillingly to school.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58023</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I never married because there was no need.
