They stop loving God with all the heart and all the soul and all the strength and all the mind. They stop loving their neighbors, too. When you find a person of means who is not either a self-centered bore or a low person, you may know that God has worked a miracle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6496</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now, blessings light on him that first invented this same sleep! it covers a man all over, thoughts and all, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56626]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now, blessings light on him that first invented this same sleep! it covers a man all over, thoughts and all, like a cloak; it is meat for the hungry, drink for the thirsty, heat for the cold, and cold for the hot. It is the current coin that purchases all the pleasures of the world cheap; and the balance that sets the king and the shepherd, the fool and the wise man, even. There is only one thing, which somebody once put into my head, that I dislike in sleep; it is, that it resembles death; there is very little difference between a man in his first sleep, and a man in his last sleep.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56626</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is going to change my life a lot. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34150]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is going to change my life a lot.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34150</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Evil and good are God's right hand and left. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14288]]></link><description><![CDATA[Evil and good are God's right hand and left.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14288</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On any other night, giving up 41 points is not a bad defensive effort, but when you only score 33 ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31958]]></link><description><![CDATA[On any other night, giving up 41 points is not a bad defensive effort, but when you only score 33 it's a moot point.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31958</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A person's life is dyed with the color of his imagination. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41478]]></link><description><![CDATA[A person's life is dyed with the color of his imagination.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41478</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The goal is to create a new use for the manure that's surrounding the town ? as a biofuel. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33365]]></link><description><![CDATA[The goal is to create a new use for the manure that's surrounding the town ? as a biofuel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are what we repeatedly do.

The faith that limits itself to the promises of God seems to me to partake of the paltry character of such a faith in my child -- good enough for a Pagan, but for a Christian a miserable and wretched faith. Those who rest in such a faith would feel yet more comfortable if they had God's bond instead of His word, which they regard not as the outcome of His character but as a pledge of His honour. They try to believe in the truth of His word, but the truth of His Being they understand not. In His oath they persuade themselves that they put confidence: in himself they do not believe, for they know Him not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8095</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The art of communication is the language of leadership. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9056]]></link><description><![CDATA[The art of communication is the language of leadership.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9056</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anyone can hate.
