General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't waste time learning the "tricks of the trade.

I would invite you, therefore, to inquire seriously whether such persons are not really bowing down before an idol of the mind, which, while itself of very questionable worth, demands as much implicit faith from its worshipers as divine revelation itself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I feel like Josh, Michelle and Adam were all team players, who wanted to be a part of an ensemble. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28392]]></link><description><![CDATA[I feel like Josh, Michelle and Adam were all team players, who wanted to be a part of an ensemble.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28392</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48305]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48305</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What means this heaviness that hangs upon me? This lethargy that creeps through all my senses?  Nature, oppress'd and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56607]]></link><description><![CDATA[What means this heaviness that hangs upon me? This lethargy that creeps through all my senses?  Nature, oppress'd and harrass'd out with care,   Sinks down to rest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56607</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you're not a white male, consider sales seriously.

The invisible church, composed of all Spirit-baptized persons, is indefectible, it cannot be ruined; against it "the gates of Hades shall not prevail." The local assembly may indeed by sadly ruined; but it can be restored, as, by the grace of God, has been seen times without number -- at Corinth, for example. The only other institution in question is that agglomeration of sects that is called "Christendom." But that is unrecognized by the New Testament -- it is not of God at all: and that it is "in ruins" is no matter for our regret.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6827</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Without justice, courage is weak. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23617]]></link><description><![CDATA[Without justice, courage is weak.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23617</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Intuition is truly a feminine quality, but women should not mistake rash conclusions for this gift ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22985]]></link><description><![CDATA[Intuition is truly a feminine quality, but women should not mistake rash conclusions for this gift]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22985</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once the game is over, the king and the pawn go back in the same box. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11431]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once the game is over, the king and the pawn go back in the same box.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From the x-rays, there doesn't seem to be any major (fracture) but we are waiting for a full report on ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34717]]></link><description><![CDATA[From the x-rays, there doesn't seem to be any major (fracture) but we are waiting for a full report on that.
