Each human being has exactly the same number of hours and minutes every day. Rich people can't buy more hours. Scientists can't invent new minutes. And you can't save time to spend it on another day. Even so, time is amazingly fair and forgiving. No matter how much time you've wasted in the past, you still have an entire tomorrow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59360</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most seditious is the most cowardly. [Lat., Seditiosissimus quisque ignavus.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54145]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most seditious is the most cowardly. [Lat., Seditiosissimus quisque ignavus.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54145</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A parliament speaking through reporters to Buncombe and the Twenty-seven millions, mostly fools. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23333]]></link><description><![CDATA[A parliament speaking through reporters to Buncombe and the Twenty-seven millions, mostly fools.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23333</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'd had my daughter when I was a teenager - I took my daughter to college with me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40925]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'd had my daughter when I was a teenager - I took my daughter to college with me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40925</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For, behold, the Lord, the Lord of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah the stay and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13164]]></link><description><![CDATA[For, behold, the Lord, the Lord of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah the stay and the staff, the whole stay of bread, and the whole stay of water.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13164</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[MUFFLED CADENCEThe sound of shot.The roar of gun.Thy will be doneblares the drum.The sudden shock.The news farflung.Thy will be donebeats ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11281]]></link><description><![CDATA[MUFFLED CADENCEThe sound of shot.The roar of gun.Thy will be doneblares the drum.The sudden shock.The news farflung.Thy will be donebeats the drum.The hour of grief.The darkened sun.Thy will be donerolls the drum.The sound of shot.The grave begun.Thy will be donemourns the drum.**by N Marshall Bertsch(N Marshall Bertsch is a Republican who was profoundlygriefstricken by the assassination of John F Kennedy).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Farmer and His SonsA father, being on the point of death, wished to be sure that his sons would ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1584]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Farmer and His SonsA father, being on the point of death, wished to be sure that his sons would give the same attention to his farm as he himself had given it.

The confidence requisite for attempting the unprecedented is most effectively generated by the fiction that in realizing the new we are imitating rather than originating. Our preoccupation with heaven can be part of an effort to find precedents for the unprecedented.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52332</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For those who may not find happiness to exercise religious faith, it's okay to remain a radical atheist, it's absolutely ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9166]]></link><description><![CDATA[For those who may not find happiness to exercise religious faith, it's okay to remain a radical atheist, it's absolutely an individual right, but the important thing is with a compassionate heart -- then no problem.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9166</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are taking this weekend to sit down and rehash what needs to be done. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41493]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are taking this weekend to sit down and rehash what needs to be done.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41493</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Upon the conduct of each depends the fate of all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12083]]></link><description><![CDATA[Upon the conduct of each depends the fate of all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12083</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Daniel deserves all the credit.
