And if a man knows the law, people will find it out, tho he live in a pine shanty, and resort to him. And if a man can pipe or sing, so as to wrap the prisoned soul in an elysium; or can paint landscape, and convey into oils and ochers all the enchantments of spring or autumn; or can liberate or intoxicate all people who hear him with delicious songs and verses, 'tis certain that the secret can not be kept: the first witness tells it to a second, and men go by fives and tens and fifties to his door.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58143</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By vulgarity I mean that vice of civilization which makes man ashamed of himself and his next of kin, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61040]]></link><description><![CDATA[By vulgarity I mean that vice of civilization which makes man ashamed of himself and his next of kin, and pretend to be somebody else]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61040</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you hire only those people you understand, the company will never get people better than you are.

We do not get the soul in different ways, under different laws, from those in which we get the body and the mind. If a man does not exercise his arm, he develops no biceps muscles and if a man does not exercise his soul, he acquires no muscle in his soul, no strength of character, no vigour of moral fibre, nor beauty of spiritual growth. Love is not a thing of enthusiastic emotion. It is a rich, strong, manly, vigorous expression of the whole round Christian character -- the Christ-like nature in its fullest development. And the constituents of this great character are only to be built up by ceaseless practice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7144</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a man could half his wishes he would double his Troubles. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61778]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a man could half his wishes he would double his Troubles.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61778</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The swan, with arched neck Between her white wings mantling proudly, rows  Her state with oary feet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58455]]></link><description><![CDATA[The swan, with arched neck Between her white wings mantling proudly, rows  Her state with oary feet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For small creatures such as we the vastness is bearable only through love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63536]]></link><description><![CDATA[For small creatures such as we the vastness is bearable only through love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most writers regard truth as their most valuable possession, and therefore are most economical in its use. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59876]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most writers regard truth as their most valuable possession, and therefore are most economical in its use.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59876</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May you live as long as you wish and love as long as you live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66079]]></link><description><![CDATA[May you live as long as you wish and love as long as you live.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66079</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where else are they going to go?
