For it is in love that we find the greatest of strengths and the deepest of sorrows. Love can seem to be so fleeting and unachievable yet it remains well within our reach if we only learn how to embrace it's power. To experience true love, we must be willing to open ourselves up and sacrifice part of our heart and part of our soul. We must be willing to give of ourselves freely, and we must be willing to suffer. It is only when we expose our inner selves to the white hot flame of rejection, that love can burn so brightly as to join to souls, melding the two into one, creating a bond that joins forever. It is from this bond that we draw strength eternal and power ever lasting. It is in this thing that we call love that we find the means to achieve greatness, both in ourselves and in our lives.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25636</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here is a fine field for talent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48902]]></link><description><![CDATA[Here is a fine field for talent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48902</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tremble, ye tyrants, for ye can not die. [Fr., Tremblez, tyrans, vous etes immortels.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59963]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tremble, ye tyrants, for ye can not die. [Fr., Tremblez, tyrans, vous etes immortels.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59963</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gods are fragile things; they may be killed by a whiff of science or a dose of common sense. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53518]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gods are fragile things; they may be killed by a whiff of science or a dose of common sense.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men are what their mothers made them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12105]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men are what their mothers made them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12105</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some nation states prohibit the police from collecting information on their own citizens.
