It is twice blest: It blesseth him that gives and him that takes. 'T is mightiest in the mightiest: it becomes The throned monarch better than his crown; His sceptre shows the force of temporal power, The attribute to awe and majesty, Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings; But mercy is above this sceptred sway, It is enthroned in the hearts of kings, It is an attribute to God himself; And earthly power doth then show likest God's, When mercy seasons justice. Therefore, Jew, Though justice be thy plea, consider this, That in the course of justice none of us Should see salvation: we do pray for mercy; And that same prayer doth teach us all to render The deeds of mercy. -The Merchant of Venice. Act iv. Sc. 1.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55604</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those have most power to hurt us, that we love ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47912]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those have most power to hurt us, that we love]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47912</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only in art will the lion lie down with the lamb, and the rose grow without thorn ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41911]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only in art will the lion lie down with the lamb, and the rose grow without thorn]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41911</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bomb that fell on Hiroshima fell on America too.

Races and peoples, lo, we stand divided,  And, sharing not our griefs, no joy can share;  By wars and tumults love is mocked, derided  His conquering cross no kingdom wills to bear. Envious of heart, blind-eyed, with tongues confounded, Nation by nation still goes unforgiven, In wrath and fear, by jealousies surrounded,  Building proud towers which shall not reach to heaven. Lust of possession worketh desolations;  There is no meekness in the sons of earth;  Led by no star, the rulers of the nations  Still fail to bring us to the blissful birth: How shall we love Thee, holy hidden Being,  If we love not the world which Thou hast made?  O give us brother-love for better seeing  Thy Word made flesh, and in a manger laid.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We started off bad and never recovered.
