That is the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then — to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not the situation that makes the man, but the man who makes the situation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8746]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not the situation that makes the man, but the man who makes the situation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8746</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The nucleus is there on the line, but the depth is a major, major question. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31718]]></link><description><![CDATA[The nucleus is there on the line, but the depth is a major, major question.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31718</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not plan for ventures before finishing what's at hand. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9896]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not plan for ventures before finishing what's at hand.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast, and your halls are crowded; Fast, and the world goes by. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15597]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast, and your halls are crowded; Fast, and the world goes by.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15597</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like his that lights a candle to the sun. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48544]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like his that lights a candle to the sun.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48544</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hee that makes a thing too fine, breakes it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49472]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hee that makes a thing too fine, breakes it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49472</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The brave man seeks not popular applause, Nor, overpower'd with arms, deserts his cause;  Unsham'd, though foil'd, he does ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4851]]></link><description><![CDATA[The brave man seeks not popular applause, Nor, overpower'd with arms, deserts his cause;  Unsham'd, though foil'd, he does the best he can,   Force is of brutes, but honor is of man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4851</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A woman and a glasse are ever in danger. [A woman and a glass are ever in danger.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49089]]></link><description><![CDATA[A woman and a glasse are ever in danger. [A woman and a glass are ever in danger.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49089</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't overlook the importance of worldwide thinking.
