That way, if some smart-aleck cowboy said something like 'Hey, look. He's carrying a soldering iron!' and started laughing, and everybody else started laughing, I could just say, 'That's right, it's a soldering iron. The soldering iron of justice.' Then everybody would get real quiet and ashamed, because they had made fun of the soldering iron of justice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20082</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature drawes more then ten teemes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49638]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nature drawes more then ten teemes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49638</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best way to make your dreams come true is to wake up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66490]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best way to make your dreams come true is to wake up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In fact, it tends to argue the opposite. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30781]]></link><description><![CDATA[In fact, it tends to argue the opposite.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30781</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The president's decree to withdraw from the Council of CIS Defense Ministers does not mean that Georgia is withdrawing from ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35650]]></link><description><![CDATA[The president's decree to withdraw from the Council of CIS Defense Ministers does not mean that Georgia is withdrawing from the Commonwealth of Independent States.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35650</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of William Law, Priest, Mystic, 1761 Commemoration of William of Ockham, Franciscan Friar, Philosopher, Teacher, 1347 Commemoration of Pierre ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6959]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of William Law, Priest, Mystic, 1761 Commemoration of William of Ockham, Franciscan Friar, Philosopher, Teacher, 1347 Commemoration of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Priest, Scientist, Visionary, 1955  The pure, mere love of God is that alone from which sinners are justly to expect that no sin will pass unpunished, but that His love will visit them with every calamity and distress that can help to break and purify the bestial heart of man and awaken in him true repentance and conversion to God. It is love alone in the holy Deity that will allow no peace to the wicked, nor ever cease its judgments till every sinner is forced to confess that it is good for him that he has been in trouble, and thankfully own that not the wrath but the love of God has plucked out that right eye, cut off that right band, which he ought to have done but would not do for himself and his own salvation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6959</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lynn Swann respects the historic legacy of labor in Pennsylvania.

He called for the love of our enemies, not their destruction; ... for readiness to suffer instead of using force; for forgiveness instead of hate and revenge. One might even say [that] Jesus was more revolutionary than the revolutionaries, or revolutionary in a very different way. The revolution he had in mind was a radical change of heart on the part of mankind, involving conversion away from selfishness and toward the willing service of God and of people in general.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6323</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was really staggering to stand there on that slab on what was their City Hall and you look around ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30441]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was really staggering to stand there on that slab on what was their City Hall and you look around 360 degrees and you see nothing there that could be salvaged.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Avon to the Severn runs, The Severn, to the sea,  And Wickliff's dust shall spread abroad   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12640]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Avon to the Severn runs, The Severn, to the sea,  And Wickliff's dust shall spread abroad   Wide as the waters be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An advantage of poverty, your relatives gain nothing by your death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53357]]></link><description><![CDATA[An advantage of poverty, your relatives gain nothing by your death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53357</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58891]]></link><description><![CDATA[Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All serious daring starts from within. -Harriet Beecher Stowe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10415]]></link><description><![CDATA[All serious daring starts from within. -Harriet Beecher Stowe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10415</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't want to get to the end of my life and find that I lived just the length of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24826]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't want to get to the end of my life and find that I lived just the length of it.
