Male sexuality is, by definition, intensely and rigidly phallic. A man's identity is located in his conception of himself as the possessor of a phallus; a man's worth is located in his pride in phallic identity. The main characteristic of phallic identity is that worth is entirely contingent on the possession of a phallus. Since men have no other criteria for worth, no other notion of identity, those who do not have phalluses are not recognized as fully human.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He is rich that is satisfied. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2109]]></link><description><![CDATA[He is rich that is satisfied.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2109</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even on the highest throne in the world, we are still sitting on our ass. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14708]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even on the highest throne in the world, we are still sitting on our ass.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14708</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They are doing very well, making good money, more money than the rooms. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35809]]></link><description><![CDATA[They are doing very well, making good money, more money than the rooms.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35809</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The idea is that the boys learn about cars, how to build them and how to compete in a fun ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30007]]></link><description><![CDATA[The idea is that the boys learn about cars, how to build them and how to compete in a fun way.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30007</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Honesty and integrity are absolutely essential for success in life - all areas of life.

Wrath, which is a fourth birth from these three, can have no existence till one or all of these three are contradicted, or have something done to them that is contrary to their will. These four properties generate their own torment. They have no outward cause, nor any inward power of altering themselves. And therefore all self or nature must be in this state until some supernatural good comes into it, or gets a birth in it. Whilst man indeed lives among the vanities of time, his covetousness, envy, pride, and wrath may be in a tolerable state, may hold him to a mixture of peace and trouble; they may have at times their gratifications as well as their torments. But when death has put an end to the vanity of all earthly cheats, the soul that is not born again of the Supernatural Word and Spirit of God, must find itself unavoidably devoured and shut up in its own insatiable, unchangeable, self-tormenting covetousness, envy, pride, and wrath.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The manager has a short-range view; the leader has a long-rangeperspective. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21669]]></link><description><![CDATA[The manager has a short-range view; the leader has a long-rangeperspective.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21669</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24679]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24679</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Long stormy spring-time, wet contentious April, winter chilling the lap of very May; but at length the season of summer ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54952]]></link><description><![CDATA[Long stormy spring-time, wet contentious April, winter chilling the lap of very May; but at length the season of summer does come]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing adventured, nothing attained. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21459]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing adventured, nothing attained.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21459</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Things have changed throughout the state and a lot of farmers now have off-farm income. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33444]]></link><description><![CDATA[Things have changed throughout the state and a lot of farmers now have off-farm income.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33444</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why get married and make one man miserable when I can stay single and make thousands miserable? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26392]]></link><description><![CDATA[Why get married and make one man miserable when I can stay single and make thousands miserable?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26392</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He loves his bonds who, when the first are broke, Submits his neck into a second yoke ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44753]]></link><description><![CDATA[He loves his bonds who, when the first are broke, Submits his neck into a second yoke]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44753</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're trying to be judicious.
