Satan sniggers with fiendish scorn at God, who sits in his ivory tower emitting nary a chuckle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27438</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing in Nature's sober found, But an eternal Health goes round.  Fill up the Bowl then, fill it high-- ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13000]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing in Nature's sober found, But an eternal Health goes round.  Fill up the Bowl then, fill it high--   Fill all the Glasses there; for why    Should every Creature Drink but I?     Why, Man of Morals, tell me why?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13000</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am bigger than anything that can happen to me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22302]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am bigger than anything that can happen to me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There were miracles long before Christianity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27572]]></link><description><![CDATA[There were miracles long before Christianity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What mean ye that ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? saith the Lord ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47869]]></link><description><![CDATA[What mean ye that ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? saith the Lord God of hosts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47869</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I die hard but am not afraid to go. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60274]]></link><description><![CDATA[I die hard but am not afraid to go.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60274</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tsze-Kung asked, "Is there one word which may serve as a rule of practice for all one's life?"
