But this changes everything. The cross and the crucifixion enter into the bliss of paradise. The Son of God and the Son of Man descends into hell to free those who suffer there... To conquer evil, the good must crucify itself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8369</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The heart seldom feels what the mouth expresses. [Fr., Le coeur sent rarement ce que la bouche exprime.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57347]]></link><description><![CDATA[The heart seldom feels what the mouth expresses. [Fr., Le coeur sent rarement ce que la bouche exprime.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57347</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The imagination and the senses cannot be gratified at the same time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55133]]></link><description><![CDATA[The imagination and the senses cannot be gratified at the same time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55133</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We shouldn't teach great books; we should teach a love of reading. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4491]]></link><description><![CDATA[We shouldn't teach great books; we should teach a love of reading.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4491</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I had a dream, which was not all a dream. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12863]]></link><description><![CDATA[I had a dream, which was not all a dream.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12863</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One must be a god to be able to tell successes from failures without making a mistake. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64751]]></link><description><![CDATA[One must be a god to be able to tell successes from failures without making a mistake.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pride of the dewy morning, The swain's experienced eye  From thee takes timely warning.   Nor trusts the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52950]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pride of the dewy morning, The swain's experienced eye  From thee takes timely warning.   Nor trusts the gorgeous sky.   - John Keble,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52950</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The base salaries for all management employees are being reviewed with those below market to be adjusted.

If they follow Jesus, men escape from the hard yoke of their own laws, and submit to the kindly yoke of Jesus Christ. But does this mean that we can ignore the seriousness of His command? Far from it! We can only achieve perfect liberty and enjoy fellowship with Jesus when His command, His call to absolute discipleship, is appreciated in its entirety. Only the man who follows the command of Jesus without reserve, and submits unresistingly to His yoke, finds his burden easy, and under its gentle pressure receives the power to persevere in the right way. The command of Jesus is hard -- unutterably hard -- for those who try to resist it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8599</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[...the argument for liberty is not an argument against organization, which is one of the most powerful tools human reason ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47387]]></link><description><![CDATA[...the argument for liberty is not an argument against organization, which is one of the most powerful tools human reason can employ, but an argument against all exclusive, privileged, monopolistic organization, against the use of coercion to prevent others from doing better.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47387</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Deep doubts, deep wisdom; small doubts, little wisdom. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12780]]></link><description><![CDATA[Deep doubts, deep wisdom; small doubts, little wisdom.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12780</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Friends and good manners will carry you where money won't go. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26356]]></link><description><![CDATA[Friends and good manners will carry you where money won't go.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26356</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can see the argument around the potential revenue from international editions not being sufficient, when compared to just putting ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33984]]></link><description><![CDATA[You can see the argument around the potential revenue from international editions not being sufficient, when compared to just putting the magazine up on the Internet.

The Ass was left in a stable and had plenty of oats and hay to eat, just as any other Ass would. The Lapdog knew many tricks and was a great favorite with his master, who often fondled him and seldom went out to dine without bringing him home some tidbit to eat. The Ass, on the contrary, had much work to do in grinding the corn-mill and in carrying wood from the forest or burdens from the farm. He often lamented his own hard fate and contrasted it with the luxury and idleness of the Lapdog, till at last one day he broke his cords and halter, and galloped into his master's house, kicking up his heels without measure, and frisking and fawning as well as he could. He next tried to jump about his master as he had seen the Lapdog do, but he broke the table and smashed all the dishes upon it to atoms. He then attempted to lick his master, and jumped upon his back. The servants, hearing the strange hubbub and perceiving the danger of their master, quickly relieved him, and drove out the Ass to his stable with kicks and clubs and cuffs. The Ass, as he returned to his stall beaten nearly to death, thus lamented: I have brought it all on myself! Why could I not have been contented to labor with my companions, and not wish to be idle all the day like that useless little Lapdog!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1545</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art is the symbol of the two noblest human efforts: to construct and to refrain from destruction. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63260]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art is the symbol of the two noblest human efforts: to construct and to refrain from destruction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63260</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis pleasant purchasing our fellow-creatures; And all are to be sold, if you consider  Their passions, and are dext'rous; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4899]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis pleasant purchasing our fellow-creatures; And all are to be sold, if you consider  Their passions, and are dext'rous; some by features   Are brought up, others by a warlike leader;    Some by a place--as tend their years or natures;     The most by ready cash--but all have prices,      From crowns to kicks, according to their vices.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4899</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My valet-de-chambre sings me no such song. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19215]]></link><description><![CDATA[My valet-de-chambre sings me no such song.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thou shalt not covet; but tradition approves all forms of competition. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57504]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thou shalt not covet; but tradition approves all forms of competition.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57504</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/487]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/487</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We hate merit while it is with us; when taken away from our gaze, we long for it jealously. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50381]]></link><description><![CDATA[We hate merit while it is with us; when taken away from our gaze, we long for it jealously.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50381</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who thought he'd won The field as certain as a gun. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60573]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who thought he'd won The field as certain as a gun.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60573</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Smile - It's the second best thing you can do with your lips. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56652]]></link><description><![CDATA[Smile - It's the second best thing you can do with your lips.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56652</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's unusual.
