And since His desperate diagnosis is so accurate, may not His optimism also justify itself even in me. Well does He know what is in human nature, and yet, knowing the worst, He still has confident hope.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But to be frank and I think probably to the relief of many of you, I am withdrawing from the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29847]]></link><description><![CDATA[But to be frank and I think probably to the relief of many of you, I am withdrawing from the speaking circuit.
