And thus we see, in the strongest and clearest light, both why and how the holy Jesus is become our great Redeemer.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6965</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poets are the only people to whom love is not only a crucial, I've always felt that a person's intelligence ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40812]]></link><description><![CDATA[Poets are the only people to whom love is not only a crucial, I've always felt that a person's intelligence is directly reflected by the number of conflicting points of view he can entertain simultaneously on the same topic.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The heart may think it knows better: the senses know that absence blots people out.
