Quite frequently he is voicing a solid conviction, a genuine facet of hope. At present his vision is severely limited, and that is probably just as well, if his sanity is to be preserved. But when he is free of the limitations of temporal life, he has every hope of being able to know as surely as he is at present known.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A child of our grandmother Eve, a female; or, for thy more sweet understanding, a woman. -Love's Labour 's Lost. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55475]]></link><description><![CDATA[A child of our grandmother Eve, a female; or, for thy more sweet understanding, a woman. -Love's Labour 's Lost.
