It is in this way that mortals become angels. It is not their fault; they do not know how to set about it otherwise. This hell from which you have come out is the first step towards Heaven. We must begin by that. -- Jean Valjean --]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43166</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital.

Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed.

Hence a man’s reaction to monarchy is a kind of test. Monarchy can easily be ‘debunked;' but watch the faces, mark the accents of the debunkers. These are the men whose tap-root in Eden has been cut: whom no rumour of the polyphony, the dance, can reach - men to whom pebbles laid in a row are more beautiful than an arch. Yet even if they desire equality, they cannot reach it. Where men are forbidden to honour a king they honour millionaires, athletes or film-stars instead: even famous prostitutes or gangsters. For spiritual nature, like bodily nature, will be served; deny it food and it will gobble poison.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19932</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It cannot be repeated too often that the safety of great wealth with us lies in obedience to the new ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61393]]></link><description><![CDATA[It cannot be repeated too often that the safety of great wealth with us lies in obedience to the new version of the Old World axiom--Richesse oblige.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61393</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And ye shall know the truth,and the truth shall make you free. -John VII. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59846]]></link><description><![CDATA[And ye shall know the truth,and the truth shall make you free. -John VII.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59846</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Modern cynics and skeptics... see no harm in paying those to whom they entrust the minds of their children a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56486]]></link><description><![CDATA[Modern cynics and skeptics... see no harm in paying those to whom they entrust the minds of their children a smaller wage than is paid to those to whom they entrust the care of their plumbing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56486</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Guilt is present in the very hesitation, even though the deed be not committed. [Lat., In ipsa dubitatione facinus inest, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18461]]></link><description><![CDATA[Guilt is present in the very hesitation, even though the deed be not committed. [Lat., In ipsa dubitatione facinus inest, etiamsi ad id non pervererint.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He comes to the world, as a gentleman comes To a lodging ready furnished. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50159]]></link><description><![CDATA[He comes to the world, as a gentleman comes To a lodging ready furnished.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50159</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To teach is to learn twice.

Thus it must be a decisive rule of every Christian fellowship that each individual is prohibited from saying much that occurs to him. This prohibition does not include the personal word of advice and guidance. But to speak about a brother is forbidden, even under the cloak of help and goodwill; for it is precisely in this guise that the spirit of hatred among brothers creeps in when it is seeking to create mischief.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Change is the only constant ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5495]]></link><description><![CDATA[Change is the only constant]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What the customer demands is last year's model, cheaper.
