That is the vainest of vain dreams. Rather is this the supreme revelation of a new way of living life; and only those who -- blunderingly, it may be, but yet honestly -- seek to adopt and imitate it can be counted really Christian folk.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7486</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To every journey in life, how you begin matters much but who and what the journey makes you become in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62932]]></link><description><![CDATA[To every journey in life, how you begin matters much but who and what the journey makes you become in the end matters much more.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62932</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are not going to bypass them because of a small inconvenience. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32925]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are not going to bypass them because of a small inconvenience.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32925</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This sunlight shames November where he grieves In dead red leaves, and will not let him shun  The day, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3570]]></link><description><![CDATA[This sunlight shames November where he grieves In dead red leaves, and will not let him shun  The day, though bough with bough be overrun.   But with a blessing every glade receives    High salutation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3570</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A full mind is an empty bat. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3750]]></link><description><![CDATA[A full mind is an empty bat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3750</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Shall Life renew these bodies?
