304  Love is careful of little things, of circumstances and measures, and of little accidents; not allowing to itself any infirmity which it strives not to master, aiming at what it cannot yet reach, desiring to be of an angelic purity, and of a perfect innocence, and a seraphical fervor, and fears every image of offense; is as much afflicted at an idle word as some at an act of adultery, and will not allow to itself so much anger as will disturb a child, nor endure the impurity of a dream. And this is the curiosity and niceness of divine love: this is the fear of God, and is the daughter and production of love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7374</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A mother takes twenty years to make a man of her boy, and another woman makes a fool of him ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16380]]></link><description><![CDATA[A mother takes twenty years to make a man of her boy, and another woman makes a fool of him in twenty minutes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16380</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They succeed, because they think they can. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51832]]></link><description><![CDATA[They succeed, because they think they can.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51832</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you don't like what you're doing, you can always pick up your needle and move to another groove. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64443]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you don't like what you're doing, you can always pick up your needle and move to another groove.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64443</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By jove, no wonder women don't love war nor understand it, nor can operate in it as a rule; it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27017]]></link><description><![CDATA[By jove, no wonder women don't love war nor understand it, nor can operate in it as a rule; it takes a man to suffer what other men have invented . . .]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27017</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is a fun group and I knew there was a competitive bent, but I just didn't know how competitive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41754]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is a fun group and I knew there was a competitive bent, but I just didn't know how competitive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41754</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For surely in the blind deep-buried roots Of all men's souls to-day  A secret quiver shoots. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57798]]></link><description><![CDATA[For surely in the blind deep-buried roots Of all men's souls to-day  A secret quiver shoots.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57798</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By nature all people are alike, but by education become different ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13376]]></link><description><![CDATA[By nature all people are alike, but by education become different]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13376</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The tie business went into the doldrums in the mid-1990s.

Jesus says His yoke is easy, His burden is light. People sometimes refuse to do God's work just because it is easy. This is sometimes because they cannot believe that easy work is His work; but there may be a very bad pride in it... Some, again, accept it with half a heart and do it with half a hand. But however easy any work may be, it can not be well done without taking thought about it. And such people, instead of taking thought about their work, generally take thought about the morrow, in which no work can be done any more than in yesterday.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So show a little inspiration/ show a little spark/ show the world a little act when you show it your ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57193]]></link><description><![CDATA[So show a little inspiration/ show a little spark/ show the world a little act when you show it your heart/ we've got two lives--one we're given,/ and the other one we make/ and the world won't stop/ and actions speak louder/ listen to your heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A cheerful heart is good medicine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18936]]></link><description><![CDATA[A cheerful heart is good medicine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18936</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We've negotiated long and hard with both players.
