Indeed, cases can easily be recalled by every one where Opportunity actually smashed in the door and collared her candidate and dragged him forth to success. These cases are exceptional, usually you have to meet Opportunity half-way. But the only place where you can get away from Opportunity is to lie down and die. Opportunity does not trouble dead men, or dead ones who flatter themselves that they are alive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45076</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Worldwide, inflation is going to be the big story next year.

There do I dwell, in weakness and in power;  Not broken or divided, saith our God!  In your strait garden plot I come to flowers  About your porch My Vine,  Meek, fruitful, doth entwine;  Waits, at the threshold, Love's appointed hour. I come in the little things, Saith the Lord: Yea! on the glancing wings Of eager birds, the softly pattering feet Of furred and gentle beasts, I come to meet Your hear and wayward heart. In brown bright eyes That peep from out the brake, I stand confest. On every nest Where feathery Patience is content to brood And leaves her pleasure for the high emprize Of motherhood -- There doth My Godhead rest. I come in the little things,  Saith the Lord:  My starry wings I do forsake,  Love's highway of humility to take:  Meekly I fit my stature to your need.  In beggar's part  About your gates I shall not cease to plead -- As man, to speak with man -- Till by such art  I shall achieve My Immemorial Plan,  Pass the low lintel of the human heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bad men excuse their faults, good men will leave them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15456]]></link><description><![CDATA[Bad men excuse their faults, good men will leave them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15456</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A flattering painter, who made it his care To draw men as they ought to be, not as they are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45419]]></link><description><![CDATA[A flattering painter, who made it his care To draw men as they ought to be, not as they are.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45419</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every single person who receives (this type of treatment) develops ... this inflammation in the lower rectal area. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28256]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every single person who receives (this type of treatment) develops ... this inflammation in the lower rectal area.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28256</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Crime is a product of social excess. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10694]]></link><description><![CDATA[Crime is a product of social excess.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10694</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Boast during the day; be humble at night. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44536]]></link><description><![CDATA[Boast during the day; be humble at night.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men born only to eat. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50297]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men born only to eat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50297</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man of genius makes no mistakes.
