Male sexuality is, by definition, intensely and rigidly phallic. A man's identity is located in his conception of himself as the possessor of a phallus; a man's worth is located in his pride in phallic identity. The main characteristic of phallic identity is that worth is entirely contingent on the possession of a phallus. Since men have no other criteria for worth, no other notion of identity, those who do not have phalluses are not recognized as fully human.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No fine work can be done without concentration and self-sacrifice and toil and doubt. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53330]]></link><description><![CDATA[No fine work can be done without concentration and self-sacrifice and toil and doubt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53330</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The angel answer'd, "Nay, said soul; go higher! To be deceived in your true heart's desire  Was bitterer than ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11529]]></link><description><![CDATA[The angel answer'd, "Nay, said soul; go higher! To be deceived in your true heart's desire  Was bitterer than a thousand years of fire!"]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11529</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We don't have to protect the environment, the Second Coming is at hand ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13310]]></link><description><![CDATA[We don't have to protect the environment, the Second Coming is at hand]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13310</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we dream so we don't have to be apart so long.

As he was wandering about there he came upon aLion lying down moaning and groaning. At first he turned to flee,but finding that the Lion did not pursue him, he turned back andwent up to him. As he came near, the Lion put out his paw, whichwas all swollen and bleeding, and Androcles found that a hugethorn had got into it, and was causing all the pain. He pulledout the thorn and bound up the paw of the Lion, who was soon ableto rise and lick the hand of Androcles like a dog. Then the Liontook Androcles to his cave, and every day used to bring him meatfrom which to live. But shortly afterwards both Androcles and theLion were captured, and the slave was sentenced to be thrown tothe Lion, after the latter had been kept without food for severaldays. The Emperor and all his Court came to see the spectacle,and Androcles was led out into the middle of the arena. Soon theLion was let loose from his den, and rushed bounding and roaringtowards his victim. But as soon as he came near to Androcles herecognised his friend, and fawned upon him, and licked his handslike a friendly dog. The Emperor, surprised at this, summonedAndrocles to him, who told him the whole story. Whereupon theslave was pardoned and freed, and the Lion let loose to his nativeforest.Gratitude is the sign of noble souls.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1496</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From principles is derived probability, but truth or certainty is obtained only from facts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/334]]></link><description><![CDATA[From principles is derived probability, but truth or certainty is obtained only from facts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/334</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything is perfect in the universe - even your desire to improve it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60170]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything is perfect in the universe - even your desire to improve it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60170</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mr. Keating: Seize the day!
