A writer expresses himself in words that have been used before because they give his meaning better than he can give it himself, or because they are beautiful or witty, or because he expects them to touch a cord of association in his reader, or because he wishes to show that he is learned and well read. Quotations due to the last motive are invariably ill-advised; the discerning reader detects it and is contemptuous; the undiscerning is perhaps impressed, but even then is at the same time repelled, pretentious quotations being the surest road to tedium.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't grow much grass on anything labeled poor.

As the Christian life is, above all things, a state of union with Christ, and of union of his followers with one another, love of the brethren is inseparable from love of God.

The personal relationship to Christ can only be realized when one has "come to himself" as a member of His Body, the Christian fellowship.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7992</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People look up to me as somebody who is able to switch the image of our country from negative to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66295]]></link><description><![CDATA[People look up to me as somebody who is able to switch the image of our country from negative to positive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66295</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How often from the steep Of echoing hill or thicket have we heard  Celestial voices to the midnight air, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62313]]></link><description><![CDATA[How often from the steep Of echoing hill or thicket have we heard  Celestial voices to the midnight air,   Sole, or responsive each to other's note,    Singing their great Creator?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Apothegms to thinking minds are the seeds from which spring vast fields of new thought, that may be further cultivated, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52872]]></link><description><![CDATA[Apothegms to thinking minds are the seeds from which spring vast fields of new thought, that may be further cultivated, beautified, and enlarged.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52872</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two people in love, alone, isolated from the world, that's beautiful. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66014]]></link><description><![CDATA[Two people in love, alone, isolated from the world, that's beautiful.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66014</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They say we are Almost as like as eggs. -The Winter's Tale.
