One day others will come who will do the same things better. And some day he will have been completely forgotten--even if he should have built the pyramids or the St. Gotthard tunnel or invented atomic fission. And one thing is even more certain: whether the achievement of a man's life is great or small, significant or insignificant, he will one day stand before his eternal judge, and everything that he has done and performed will be no more than a mole hill, and then he will have nothing better to do than hope for something he has not earned: not for a crown, but quite simply for gracious judgment which he has not deserved. That is the only thing that will count then, achievement or not. "My kindness shall not depart from you." By this man lives. By this alone can he live.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Charity separates the rich from the poor; aid raises the needy and sets him on the same level with the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5720]]></link><description><![CDATA[Charity separates the rich from the poor; aid raises the needy and sets him on the same level with the rich.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5720</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing which cannot be perverted by being told badly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54564]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing which cannot be perverted by being told badly.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men in no way approach so nearly to the gods as in doing good to men. [Lat., Homines ad deos ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17849]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men in no way approach so nearly to the gods as in doing good to men. [Lat., Homines ad deos nulla re propius accedunt, quam salutem hominibus dando.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17849</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Circumstances are beyond human control, but our conduct is in our own power. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66273]]></link><description><![CDATA[Circumstances are beyond human control, but our conduct is in our own power.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66273</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only shame is to have none ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56122]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only shame is to have none]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The civilized man has built a coach, but has lost the use of his feet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8933]]></link><description><![CDATA[The civilized man has built a coach, but has lost the use of his feet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8933</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A fascist sees the mote in his neighbor’s eye, then hits him over the head with the beam in his ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15324]]></link><description><![CDATA[A fascist sees the mote in his neighbor’s eye, then hits him over the head with the beam in his own.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All round the room my silent servants wait, My friends in every season, bright and dim. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24766]]></link><description><![CDATA[All round the room my silent servants wait, My friends in every season, bright and dim.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24766</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is a sexually transmitted terminal disease. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46239]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is a sexually transmitted terminal disease.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46239</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is this frog and mouse battle among the mathematicians? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26511]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is this frog and mouse battle among the mathematicians?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We, that would be known The father of our people, in our study,  And vigilance for their safety, must ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45798]]></link><description><![CDATA[We, that would be known The father of our people, in our study,  And vigilance for their safety, must not change   Their ploughshares into swords, and force them from    The secure shade of their own vines, to be     Scorched with the flames of war.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45798</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I remain just one thing, and one thing only -- and that is a clown.
