Only the man who follows the command of Jesus without reserve, and submits unresistingly to His yoke, finds his burden easy, and under its gentle pressure receives the power to persevere in the right way. The command of Jesus is hard -- unutterably hard -- for those who try to resist it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8599</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mission of the press is to spread culture while destroying the attention span ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48167]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mission of the press is to spread culture while destroying the attention span]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48167</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never make a defense or an apology until you are accused. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2711]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never make a defense or an apology until you are accused.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2711</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wise people always think wisely and never otherwise !. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1412]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wise people always think wisely and never otherwise !.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1412</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For thence,--a paradox Which comforts while it mocks,--  Shall life succeed in that it seems to fail:   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45488]]></link><description><![CDATA[For thence,--a paradox Which comforts while it mocks,--  Shall life succeed in that it seems to fail:   What I aspired to be,    And was not, comforts me:     A brute I might have been, but would not sink i' the scale.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45488</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dry your eyes--O dry your eyes, For I was taught in Paradise  To ease my breast of melodies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45466]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dry your eyes--O dry your eyes, For I was taught in Paradise  To ease my breast of melodies.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45466</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We will respond in kind to all those who took part in the aggression on Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine.
