Their one apparent purpose, pursued with a relentless and furious diligence, is to convert the assumption into a fact. They hunt endlessly for proofs, and, when proofs are lacking, for mere suspicions. The moment they become aware of a definite citizen, John Doe, seeking what is his right under the law, they begin searching feverishly for an excuse for withholding it from him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bit that one eates, no friend makes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49805]]></link><description><![CDATA[The bit that one eates, no friend makes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49805</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A bargain is anything a customer thinks a store is losing money on. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3731]]></link><description><![CDATA[A bargain is anything a customer thinks a store is losing money on.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3731</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When a woman behaves like a man why doesn't she behave like a nice man? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27258]]></link><description><![CDATA[When a woman behaves like a man why doesn't she behave like a nice man?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62977]]></link><description><![CDATA[A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62977</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beware of meat twice boiled, and an old foe reconciled. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11056]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beware of meat twice boiled, and an old foe reconciled.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11056</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To learn what is good, a thousand days are not sufficient; to learn what is evil, an hour is too ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63010]]></link><description><![CDATA[To learn what is good, a thousand days are not sufficient; to learn what is evil, an hour is too long.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63010</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's no one thing that is true.

This, however, must not be a superstitious observance of hours, by which, as it were, performing a task to God, we think we are discharged as to other hours. It should rather be considered a discipline by which our weakness is exercised and stimulated.

O Conqueror renowned! O Source of peace ineffable,   In whom all joys are found:  When once you visit darkened hearts   Then truth begins to shine, Then earthly vanity departs,   Then kindles love divine. O Jesus, light of all below,   The fount of life and fire,  Surpassing all the joys we know,   All that we can desire: May ev'ry heart confess your name,   Forever you adore, And, seeking you, itself inflame   To seek you more and more! Oh, may our tongues forever bless,   May we love you alone  And ever in our lives express   The image of your own!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7967</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is anomalous to hold that in order to convict a man the police cannot extract by force what is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46882]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is anomalous to hold that in order to convict a man the police cannot extract by force what is in his mind, but can extract what is in his stomach.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46882</guid></item></channel></rss>
