Take heed to yourselves: love them. In no way can thy enemy so hurt thee by his violence, as thou dost hurt thyself if thou love him not. And let it not seem to you impossible to love him. Believe first that it can be done, and pray that the will of God may be done in you. For what good can thy neighbor's ill do to thee? If he had no ill, he would not even be thine enemy. Wish him well, then, that he may end his ill, and he will be thine enemy no longer. For it is not the human nature in him that is at enmity with thee, but his sin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8442</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We may have the best-shooting backcourt in the NBA. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41965]]></link><description><![CDATA[We may have the best-shooting backcourt in the NBA.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41965</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm just trying to make solid contact right there, and I got a slider over the plate and put the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32651]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm just trying to make solid contact right there, and I got a slider over the plate and put the barrel on it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32651</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you're 0-9, you've got a lot of flaws. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29485]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you're 0-9, you've got a lot of flaws.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29485</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a country is to be corruption free and become a nation of beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66703]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a country is to be corruption free and become a nation of beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are three key societal members who can make a difference.
