A man may love a women and not win her; but it would be very odd if the phenomenon called "falling in love" occurred in a sexless world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wisdom is knowing what to do next; virtue is doing it. -David Star Jordan. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55233]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wisdom is knowing what to do next; virtue is doing it. -David Star Jordan.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55233</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To warm their little loves the birds complain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4230]]></link><description><![CDATA[To warm their little loves the birds complain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4230</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's a sure card. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5238]]></link><description><![CDATA[He's a sure card.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5238</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Business without profit is not business any more than a pickle is candy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5047]]></link><description><![CDATA[Business without profit is not business any more than a pickle is candy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What I have known with respect to myself, has tended much to lessen both my admiration, and my contempt, of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/618]]></link><description><![CDATA[What I have known with respect to myself, has tended much to lessen both my admiration, and my contempt, of others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/618</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Russia wants to play mediator between the West and Islamic world.
