We could not get on without her, and indeed, having paid lip-service to God's opinion, we must admit that we greatly prefer her, for Martha was doing a really feminine job, whereas Mary was just behaving like any other disciple; and that is a hard pill to swallow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7310</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He not only overflowed with learning, but stood in the slop. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24555]]></link><description><![CDATA[He not only overflowed with learning, but stood in the slop.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All good fortune is a gift of the gods, and. . . you don't win the favor of the ancient ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15487]]></link><description><![CDATA[All good fortune is a gift of the gods, and. . . you don't win the favor of the ancient gods by being good, but by being bold.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15487</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Excellence is an art won by training and habituation.
