What heavy burdens from our bosoms take,  What parched ground refresh as with a shower! We kneel, and all around us seems to lower; We rise, and all, the distant and the near, Stands forth in sunny outline brave and clear; We kneel, how weak! we rise, how full of power! Why, therefore, should we do ourselves this wrong,  Or other, that we are not always strong, That we are ever overborne with care, That we should ever weak or heratless be, Anxious or troubled, when with us is prayer, And joy and strength and courage are with Thee!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6321</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And the more pity that great folk should have count'nance in this world to drown or hang themselves more than ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58248]]></link><description><![CDATA[And the more pity that great folk should have count'nance in this world to drown or hang themselves more than their even-Christen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everybody loves success, but they hate successful people. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18868]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everybody loves success, but they hate successful people.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18868</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The zeal of friends it is that razes me, And not the hate of enemies.  [Ger., Der Freunde Eifer ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62634]]></link><description><![CDATA[The zeal of friends it is that razes me, And not the hate of enemies.  [Ger., Der Freunde Eifer ist's, der mich   Zu Grunde richtet, nicht der Hass der Feinde.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62634</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Electricity is the power that causes all natural phenomena not known to be caused by something else. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13697]]></link><description><![CDATA[Electricity is the power that causes all natural phenomena not known to be caused by something else.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I draw from the Absurd three consequences: my revolt, my liberty, my passion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65859]]></link><description><![CDATA[I draw from the Absurd three consequences: my revolt, my liberty, my passion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dear Ted: Thanks for the invitation to question four distinguished liberal journalists.
