They see a troll with nothing else to recommend her but a pair of thighs and choice hunkers, and so smart to void their seed that they marry her at once. They imagine they can live in marvelous contentment with handsome feet and ambrosial buttocks. Most men are accredited fools shortly after they leave the womb.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27161</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's lack of faith that makes people afraid of meeting challenges, and I believed in myself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55119]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's lack of faith that makes people afraid of meeting challenges, and I believed in myself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55119</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Remember, son, many a good story has been ruined by over-verification. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23365]]></link><description><![CDATA[Remember, son, many a good story has been ruined by over-verification.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He did not yell anything, he did not say anything, he just ran his truck over the crosses. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31426]]></link><description><![CDATA[He did not yell anything, he did not say anything, he just ran his truck over the crosses.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31426</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whatever, therefore, is foolish, ridiculous, vain, or earthly, or sensual, in the life of a Christian is something that ought ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6979]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whatever, therefore, is foolish, ridiculous, vain, or earthly, or sensual, in the life of a Christian is something that ought not to be there; it is a spot and a defilement that must be washed away with tears of repentance. But if anything of this kind runs all through the course of our life, if we allow ourselves in things that are either vain, foolish, or sensual, we renounce our profession. For as sure as Jesus Christ was wisdom and holiness, as sure as He came to make us like Himself and to be baptized into His Spirit, so sure is it that none can be said to keep to their Christian profession but they who, to the utmost of their power, live a wise and holy and heavenly life. This, and this alone, is Christianity, a universal holiness in every part of life, a heavenly wisdom in all our actions, not conforming to the spirit and temper of the world but turning all worldly enjoyments into means of piety and devotion to God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6979</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5890]]></link><description><![CDATA[In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5890</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If anyone is involved in the trade of selling and buying firearms, they have to obtain a federal firearms license. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29265]]></link><description><![CDATA[If anyone is involved in the trade of selling and buying firearms, they have to obtain a federal firearms license.

Jupiter, telling himthat it would be the last time that he could grant his request,ordained that he be sold to a tanner. The Ass found that he hadfallen into worse hands, and noting his master's occupation,said, groaning: It would have been better for me to have beeneither starved by the one, or to have been overworked by theother of my former masters, than to have been bought by mypresent owner, who will even after I am dead tan my hide, andmake me useful to him.He that finds discontentment in one place is not likely to find happiness in another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1500</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We will always remember.
