I have come to doubt it. It may be quite childish, a sort of undignified pastime -- I'm referring to the kind of suffering a man inflicts on a woman or a woman on a man. It's extremely painful. I agree that it's hardly bearable. But I very much fear that this sort of pain deserves no consideration at all. It's no more worthy of respect than old age or illness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44272</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When they hold their tongues they cry out. [Lat., Cum tacent clamant.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56280]]></link><description><![CDATA[When they hold their tongues they cry out. [Lat., Cum tacent clamant.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56280</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A good man, through obscurest aspirations Has still an instinct of the one true way.  [Ger., Ein guter Mensch, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17859]]></link><description><![CDATA[A good man, through obscurest aspirations Has still an instinct of the one true way.  [Ger., Ein guter Mensch, in seinem dunkeln Drange,   Ist sich des rechten Weges sohl bewusst.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conglomerates and cyclical companies have been on the spot lately and after today's industrial data, they once again became a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37898]]></link><description><![CDATA[Conglomerates and cyclical companies have been on the spot lately and after today's industrial data, they once again became a good buying opportunity.

If anyone with carefree assurance breaks into this place, he will not succeed in satisfying his curiosity and he will enter a labyrinth from which he can find no exit. For it is not right for man unrestrainedly to search out things that the Lord has willed to be hidden in Himself; nor is it right for him to investigate from eternity that sublime wisdom, which God would have us revere but not understand, in order that through this also He should fill us with wonder. He has set forth by His Word the secrets of His will that He has decided to reveal to us. These He decided to reveal in so far as He foresaw that they would concern and benefit us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The rose is fairest when 'tis budding new, And hope is brightest when it dawns from fears;  The rose ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51119]]></link><description><![CDATA[The rose is fairest when 'tis budding new, And hope is brightest when it dawns from fears;  The rose is sweetest wash'd with morning dew,   And love is loveliest when embalm'd in tears.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51119</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any ground subtracts its own hue from the colors which it carries and therefore influences. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39102]]></link><description><![CDATA[Any ground subtracts its own hue from the colors which it carries and therefore influences.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39102</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Baseball is a game of inches. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3754]]></link><description><![CDATA[Baseball is a game of inches.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3754</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was an interest in being involved the community.

It wears us out by multiplying distractions and beats us down destroying our solitude, where otherwise we might drink and renew our strength, before going out to face the world again. "The thoughtful soul to solitude retires," said the poet of other and quieter times; but where is the solitude to which we can retire today? "Commune with your own heart upon your bed and be still," is a wise and healing counsel; but how can it be followed in this day of the newspaper, the telephone, the radio and television? These modern playthings, like pet tiger cubs, have grown so large and dangerous that they threaten to devour us all. What was intended to be a blessing has become a positive curse. No spot is now safe from the world's intrusion. The need for solitude and quietness was never greater than it is today. What the world will do about it is their problem. Apparently the masses want it the way it is, and the majority of Christians are so completely conformed to this present age that they, too, want things the way they are. They may be annoyed a bit by the clamor and by the goldfish-bowl existence they live, but apparently they are not annoyed enough to do anything about it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7237</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Variety is the spice of life ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12586]]></link><description><![CDATA[Variety is the spice of life]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12586</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vanity is my favourite sin. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60363]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vanity is my favourite sin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60363</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a great victory that comes without blood. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49559]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a great victory that comes without blood.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49559</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I want to believe that with the signing of this agreement today, Liberia will never be plunged into another spiral ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28284]]></link><description><![CDATA[I want to believe that with the signing of this agreement today, Liberia will never be plunged into another spiral of violence in the quest for political power, or under the false pretense of liberating the people.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28284</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Finality is not the language of politics. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46954]]></link><description><![CDATA[Finality is not the language of politics.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46954</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Though bitter, good medicine cures illness.
