Here's what I wonder about Dick Cheney, and the reason that maybe they keep him only in loyalty oath audiences, is if he becomes angry, I do believe he turns into the Hulk. And so, they try and keep people from questioning him, because he'll just -- the shirt rips, and suddenly he has hair. So he's been my favorite, because he just goes out there to a room full of supporters and says, 'You know we're all going to die, right?' You're going to die unless I'm in charge.']]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12201</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is a little like expecting a bull ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23598]]></link><description><![CDATA[Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is a little like expecting a bull not to attack you because you are a vegetarian]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23598</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Growth will be sustained longer than expected.

The gospel of love -- with its emphasis upon brotherhood, equality before God, the dignity of every human being, and man's social responsibility toward man -- does not satisfy the lack that he urgently feels. That calls for something altogether different, for an assurance that he is superior, that he is right where others are wrong -- a kind of cosmic teacher's pet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7788</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is better to have a little than nothing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44680]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is better to have a little than nothing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44680</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are all born into the world with nothing.

St. Polycarp, Letter to the Philippians February 24, 2000  In church government... our primary concern is to reflect the nature of God. Christ became man in order that He might redeem men from their fallen state, from their selfishness and self-isolating divisions from God and from each other; so that, gathered together in one in Him, man may offer to God that likeness to Himself in love for which he was created. Church government is primarily concerned with this: with worship, with the drawing of the whole life of the whole world into this reflection of the nature of God. It is secondly -- and only secondly -- concerned with the quarrels and peccadilloes of those who are not, as a matter of fact, imitating God's nature very faithfully.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7482</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some often repent, yet never reform; they resemble a man traveling in a dangerous path, who frequently starts and stops, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53807]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some often repent, yet never reform; they resemble a man traveling in a dangerous path, who frequently starts and stops, but never turns back]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Children will not remember you for the material things you provided but for the feeling that you cherished them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5916]]></link><description><![CDATA[Children will not remember you for the material things you provided but for the feeling that you cherished them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To cheat oneself out of love is the most terrible deception; it is an eternal loss for which there is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5810]]></link><description><![CDATA[To cheat oneself out of love is the most terrible deception; it is an eternal loss for which there is no reparation, either in time or in eternity]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Scientists tend to resist interdisciplinary inquiries into their own territory.
