Only when even the smallest link is securely interlocked is the chain unbreakable. A community which allows unemployed members to exist within it will perish because of them. It will be well, therefore, if every member receives a definite task to perform for the community, that he may know in hours of doubt that he, too, is not useless and unusable. Every Christian community must realize that not only do the weak need the strong, but also that the strong cannot exist without the weak. The elimination of the weak is the death of the fellowship.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8582</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A whole stack of memories never equal one little hope. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64472]]></link><description><![CDATA[A whole stack of memories never equal one little hope.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64472</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By-and-by has no end. [Lat., Modo, et modo, non habebent modum.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59297]]></link><description><![CDATA[By-and-by has no end. [Lat., Modo, et modo, non habebent modum.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59297</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you're one of the top one or two in the league, why should age be a question?

A man can be a hero because he suffers and despairs; or because he thinks logically and analytically; or because he is "sensitive;" or because he is cruel. Wealth establishes a man as a hero, and so does poverty. Virtually any circumstance in a man's life will make him a hero to some group of people and has a mythic rendering in the culture -- in literature, art, theater, or the daily newspapers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They got up on us in the beginning and we weren't able to catch up.
