On the other hand, my importance to myself is tremendous. I am all I have to work with, to play with, to suffer and to enjoy. It is not the eyes of others that I am wary of, but of my own. I do not intend to let myself down more than I can possibly help, and I find that the fewer illusions I have about myself or the world around me, the better company I am for myself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/894</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Devil, can sometimes do a very gentlemanly thing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64880]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Devil, can sometimes do a very gentlemanly thing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64880</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like a French poem is life; being only perfect in structure when with the masculine rhymes mingled the feminine are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64909]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like a French poem is life; being only perfect in structure when with the masculine rhymes mingled the feminine are.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64909</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the biggest tournament of the season outside of the regional and state championships.

Nor is there any other foundation for any, nor other name by which any can be saved, but the name of Jesus. But how this foundation is presented, and how this name of Jesus is notified unto them, amongst whom there is no Gospel preached, no Church established, I am not curious in inquiring. I know that God can be as merciful as those tender Fathers present him to be; and I would be as charitable as they are. And therefore, humbly embracing that manifestation of his Son, which he hath afforded me, I leave God, to his unsearchable waies of working upon others, without further inquisition.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8068</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An Irishman's heart is nothing but his imagination. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23054]]></link><description><![CDATA[An Irishman's heart is nothing but his imagination.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23054</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are two ways of meeting difficulties: you alter the difficulties or you alter yourself meeting them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44149]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are two ways of meeting difficulties: you alter the difficulties or you alter yourself meeting them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who binds to himself a joy doth the winged life destroy.

Races and peoples, lo, we stand divided,  And, sharing not our griefs, no joy can share;  By wars and tumults love is mocked, derided  His conquering cross no kingdom wills to bear. Envious of heart, blind-eyed, with tongues confounded, Nation by nation still goes unforgiven, In wrath and fear, by jealousies surrounded,  Building proud towers which shall not reach to heaven. Lust of possession worketh desolations;  There is no meekness in the sons of earth;  Led by no star, the rulers of the nations  Still fail to bring us to the blissful birth: How shall we love Thee, holy hidden Being,  If we love not the world which Thou hast made?  O give us brother-love for better seeing  Thy Word made flesh, and in a manger laid.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wealth is not his that has it, but his that enjoys it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61464]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wealth is not his that has it, but his that enjoys it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61464</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2627]]></link><description><![CDATA[For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When a symbol unmoors itself from what it symbolizes, it loses meaning.
