The real questions refuse to be placated. They barge into your life at the times when it seems most important for them to stay away. They are the questions asked most frequently and answered most inadequately, the ones that reveal their true natures slowly, reluctantly, most often against your will. -Ingrid Bengis.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12245</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The two most powerful warriors are patience and time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45705]]></link><description><![CDATA[The two most powerful warriors are patience and time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45705</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One of the oldest human needs is having someone to wonder where you are, when you don't come home at ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44088]]></link><description><![CDATA[One of the oldest human needs is having someone to wonder where you are, when you don't come home at night.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44088</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You do not play then at whist, sir?

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[The major concrete achievement of the women's movement of the 1970's was the Dutch treat. -Nora Ephron. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14795]]></link><description><![CDATA[The major concrete achievement of the women's movement of the 1970's was the Dutch treat. -Nora Ephron.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14795</guid></item></channel></rss>
