Be sure that we likewise need the forgiveness of those that are under us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8526</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What makes humility so desirable is the marvelous thing it does to us; it creates in us a capacity for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/820]]></link><description><![CDATA[What makes humility so desirable is the marvelous thing it does to us; it creates in us a capacity for the closest possible intimacy with God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/820</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Katherine of Alexandria, Martyr, 4th century    On humanist assumptions, life leads to nothing; and every ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6739]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Katherine of Alexandria, Martyr, 4th century    On humanist assumptions, life leads to nothing; and every pretense that it does not is a deceit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6739</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're eyeball to eyeball and the other fellow just blinked. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44364]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're eyeball to eyeball and the other fellow just blinked.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44364</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's kind of a mess, and they wanted some fix.
