Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal.

But in that casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23381</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk. -Thomas Edison. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20547]]></link><description><![CDATA[To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk. -Thomas Edison.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hollywood amuses me.
