That first foretaste satisfies us. And so we camp for life out on the confines of the Kingdom, and never press on to inherit what is there and meant for us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7843</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be still, sad heart, and cease repining; Behind the clouds the sun is shining;  Thy fate is the common ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52934]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be still, sad heart, and cease repining; Behind the clouds the sun is shining;  Thy fate is the common fate of all,   Into each life some rain must fall,    Some days must be dark and dreary.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The English like eccentrics.
