One of his workmen observed his frequent visits to the spot and decided to watch his movements. He soon discovered the secret of the hidden treasure, and digging down, came to the lump of gold, and stole it. The Miser, on his next visit, found the hole empty and began to tear his hair and to make loud lamentations. A neighbor, seeing him overcome with grief and learning the cause, said, Pray do not grieve so; but go and take a stone, and place it in the hole, and fancy that the gold is still lying there. It will do you quite the same service; for when the gold was there, you had it not, as you did not make the slightest use of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1542</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His bloated paunch stands forth projecting a good eighteen inches. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50825]]></link><description><![CDATA[His bloated paunch stands forth projecting a good eighteen inches.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50825</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Woman's happiness begins with her first love and ends about then ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16046]]></link><description><![CDATA[Woman's happiness begins with her first love and ends about then]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16046</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vengeance has no foresight. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60475]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vengeance has no foresight.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60475</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whoever does not have a good father should procure one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63666]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whoever does not have a good father should procure one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63666</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our primary mission is to commercial air service and to support general aviation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39848]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our primary mission is to commercial air service and to support general aviation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39848</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As always, the British especially shudder at the latest American vulgarity, and then they embrace it with enthusiasm two years ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61047]]></link><description><![CDATA[As always, the British especially shudder at the latest American vulgarity, and then they embrace it with enthusiasm two years later.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Too long a sacrifice can make a stone of the heart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54605]]></link><description><![CDATA[Too long a sacrifice can make a stone of the heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Though pride is not a virtue, it is the parent of many virtues. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48192]]></link><description><![CDATA[Though pride is not a virtue, it is the parent of many virtues.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48192</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not a common thing we do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37786]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's not a common thing we do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37786</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Penetration seems a kind of inspiration; it gives me an idea of prophecy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46060]]></link><description><![CDATA[Penetration seems a kind of inspiration; it gives me an idea of prophecy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46060</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where secrecy or mystery begins, vice or roguery is not far off. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54995]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where secrecy or mystery begins, vice or roguery is not far off.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54995</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most people can't understand how others can blow their noses differently than they do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9736]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most people can't understand how others can blow their noses differently than they do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9736</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They didn't play that convincingly, but they were there when it counted.

And when a Christian fails at something he ought to have done, it isn't just the failure that hurts -- there is also the knowledge that he has let Jesus down. And those little shortcomings of ours, that used to matter so little, compared with the glaring faults of others: we know now that our temper, or our gloom, or our selfishness, reflects on Jesus; and knowing that people are judging your Lord by you is not always a joyous thought to live with. Even the growing up to His measure is hard on a man: we have so little aptitude for such a transformation that it always means conflict, and often rebellion. And temptations hurt as they never did before: not just in the conscience, but in the heart. The assaults of temptation are not on our prudence now, or even on our morals, but on the love for Jesus. His love for us has made Him quite defenseless against our hurting Him, and so temptation is no longer an urge to do a bad thing but an urge to hurt a loving Person.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's exactly what I think both parties are trying to do.
