Does he think that in that way he will have straightway persuaded us to have complete confidence in him, to look to him for consolation, for advice, and for help, in the vicissitudes of life? Do such men think that they have delighted us by telling us that they hold our souls to be nothing but a little wind and smoke -- and by saying it in conceited and complacent tones? Is that a thing to say blithely? Is it not rather a thing to say sadly -- as if it were the saddest thing in the world?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whoe'er has travel'd life's dull round, Where'er his stages may have been,  May sigh to think he still has ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20999]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whoe'er has travel'd life's dull round, Where'er his stages may have been,  May sigh to think he still has found   The warmest welcome, at an inn.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20999</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are going to walk on thin ice, you might as well dance! -Anonymous. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6075]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are going to walk on thin ice, you might as well dance! -Anonymous.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6075</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Truth gets well if she is run over by a locomotive, while error dies of lockjaw if she scratches her ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59880]]></link><description><![CDATA[Truth gets well if she is run over by a locomotive, while error dies of lockjaw if she scratches her finger.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59880</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Josephine Butler, Social Reformer, 1906 Commemoration of Apolo Kivebulaya, Priest, Evangelist, 1933  The neglect of the spiritual ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7628]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Josephine Butler, Social Reformer, 1906 Commemoration of Apolo Kivebulaya, Priest, Evangelist, 1933  The neglect of the spiritual cannot be laid directly at the door of advertising. It may be better laid at the door of the church [that] has failed to preach the God of the Bible, heaven and hell, repentance, faith, and eternal life. It can be argued that a society only gets the advertising it deserves. Yet the power to commend certain patterns of spending behaviour to millions with regularity is an open invitation to orchestrate the covetousness, envy, lust, and desire to dominate, which lie in the heart of sinful man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yon rose-buds in the morning-dew, How pure amang the leaves sae green! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54435]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yon rose-buds in the morning-dew, How pure amang the leaves sae green!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's weird.

This is particularly true when the opportunities for self-advancement are relatively meager, and one's individual interests and prospects do not seem worth living for. Such persons sooner or later turn their backs on an individual existence and strive to acquire a sense of worth and a purpose by an identification with a holy cause, a leader, or a movement. The faith and pride they derive from such an identification serve them as substitutes for the unattainable self-confidence and self-respect.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blow, winds, and crack your cheeks.
