There arose the breath of gaiety unrestrained, of love, of hate, of all the passions that man can know. There below him lay all things, good or bad, that can be brought from the four corners of the earth to instruct, please, thrill, enrich, elevate, cast down, nurture or kill. Thus the flavor of it came up to him and went into his blood.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You cannot shake hands with a clenched fist. -Golda Meir. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2609]]></link><description><![CDATA[You cannot shake hands with a clenched fist. -Golda Meir.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2609</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not because things are difficult that we dare not venture.
