Where power is one, the defeated individual, however strong and resourceful, can have no refuge and no recourse.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47621</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you would be loved, love, and be loveable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63275]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you would be loved, love, and be loveable.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21859]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The market's extremely skittish.
