Such tricks hath strong imagination, That if it would but apprehend some joy, It comprehends some bringer of that joy; Or in the night, imagining some fear, How easy is a bush supposed a bear! -A Midsummer Night's Dream. Act v. Sc. 1.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In cold blood he leapt into burning Etna. [Lat., Ardentem frigidus Aetnam insiluit.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4856]]></link><description><![CDATA[In cold blood he leapt into burning Etna. [Lat., Ardentem frigidus Aetnam insiluit.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4856</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By respect for life we become religious in a way that is elementary, profound and alive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63695]]></link><description><![CDATA[By respect for life we become religious in a way that is elementary, profound and alive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63695</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Television commercial is the most efficient power-packed capsule of education that appears anywhere on TV. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58830]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Television commercial is the most efficient power-packed capsule of education that appears anywhere on TV.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58830</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We shall never know all the good that a simple smile can do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63970]]></link><description><![CDATA[We shall never know all the good that a simple smile can do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63970</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The dream is real, my friends.

It remains the great problem of interpretation, hitherto never entirely solved, how to unite these two things: the keen attention to what Paul wanted to say to that community then, and the search for what God wants to say to us through Paul today. In the end, the question is whether the reader will really allow God to speak to him, or whether he evades God by hiding behind "Paul", behind "the past".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6802</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sprinkled along the waste of years Full many a soft green isle appears:  Pause where we may upon the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23083]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sprinkled along the waste of years Full many a soft green isle appears:  Pause where we may upon the desert road,   Some shelter is in sight, some sacred safe abode.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23083</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Technically, the recommendation is part of the governor's decision-making process and should remain with the governor until she makes her ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36579]]></link><description><![CDATA[Technically, the recommendation is part of the governor's decision-making process and should remain with the governor until she makes her formal announcement.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36579</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61374]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61374</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have many regrets, and I'm sure everyone does.
