On the whole, his character was, in its mass, perfect ... it may truly be said, that never did nature and fortune combine more perfectly to make a man great....]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60283</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1741]]></link><description><![CDATA[None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1741</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All this will not be finished in the first 100 days.
