One at last put the other to flight. The vanquished Cock skulked away and hid himself in a quiet corner, while the conqueror, flying up to a high wall, flapped his wings and crowed exultingly with all his might. An Eagle sailing through the air pounced upon him and carried him off in his talons. The vanquished Cock immediately came out of his corner, and ruled henceforth with undisputed mastery. Pride goes before destruction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1570</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was x years old in the year x^2. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26509]]></link><description><![CDATA[I was x years old in the year x^2.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It has taken me all my life to understand it is not necessary to understand everything. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2149]]></link><description><![CDATA[It has taken me all my life to understand it is not necessary to understand everything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A.J. turned in an excellent effort.

To have the next great big man of the NBA, it's very important for the team and the city. We're trying to win championships, and anything that takes away from that concentration (such as contract issues) hurts. I think we can be one of the top three teams in the West. We have a great team and great coach.

Jesus is more than a religious genius, such as George Fox, and more than a holy man, such as the lovable Lana in Kipling's Kim. He himself knows that he is more. The Gospel story is a tree rooted in the familiar soil of time and sense; but its roots go down into the Abyss and its branches fill the Heavens; given to us in terms of a country in the Eastern Mediterranean no bigger than Wales, during the Roman Principate of Tiberius Caesar in the first century of our era, its range is universal; it is on the scale of eternity. God's presence and his very Self were made manifest in the words and works of this Man. In short, the Man Christ Jesus has the decisive place in man's ageless relationship with God. He is what God means by 'Man'. He is what man means by 'God'.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6674</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Foxhunting... the unspeakable pursuing the inedible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/812]]></link><description><![CDATA[Foxhunting... the unspeakable pursuing the inedible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I regard psychiatry as fifty percent bunk, thirty percent fraud, ten percent parrot talk, and the remaining ten percent just ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51985]]></link><description><![CDATA[I regard psychiatry as fifty percent bunk, thirty percent fraud, ten percent parrot talk, and the remaining ten percent just a fancy lingo for the common sense we have had for hundreds and perhaps thousands of years, if we ever had the guts to read i]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51985</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The wages, benefits and pensions are not going to be as lucrative.

History shows this quite clearly. And under these conditions, neither religion nor morality can stop it.When, then, does plunder stop? It stops when it becomes more painful and more dangerous than labor.It is evident, then, that the proper purpose of law is to use the power of its collective force to stop this fatal tendency to plunder instead of to work. All the measures of the law should protect property and punish plunder.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47657</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Amy Carmichael, Founder of the Dohnavur Fellowship, 1951  One can give without loving, but one cannot love ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7470]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Amy Carmichael, Founder of the Dohnavur Fellowship, 1951  One can give without loving, but one cannot love without giving.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7470</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By many a happy accident. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/297]]></link><description><![CDATA[By many a happy accident.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/297</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a silly fish that is caught twice with the same bait. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16111]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a silly fish that is caught twice with the same bait.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16111</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're not sure if he's done growing.
