There is something decent unfolding in Iraq. It's unfolding in the shadow of a terrible insurgency, but a society is finding its way to constitutional politics.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34949</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4198]]></link><description><![CDATA[A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4198</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are three ingredients in the good life: yearning, learning, andearning. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21844]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are three ingredients in the good life: yearning, learning, andearning.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21844</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63207]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63207</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Rich knowes not who is his friend. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49908]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Rich knowes not who is his friend.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are their followers who do not believe in the direction of the peace talks. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34270]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are their followers who do not believe in the direction of the peace talks.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34270</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's coming off the ball well, and he's always got that quick first step on you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30637]]></link><description><![CDATA[He's coming off the ball well, and he's always got that quick first step on you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30637</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Krishna offered to the little girlmouse.. the hand of the sungodin marriage.. but instead shechosea little boy mouse. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27076]]></link><description><![CDATA[Krishna offered to the little girlmouse.. the hand of the sungodin marriage.. but instead shechosea little boy mouse.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27076</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode but the true beauty in a woman is reflected ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64697]]></link><description><![CDATA[The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.

Common sense tells us this assumption is wrong -- and nothing in the Bible supports such a conclusion. Believing that God is the Lord of history, we believe that God is at work now in the development of industry and commerce throughout the world, in the experiments and researches of the scientists, in the deliberations of the United Nations, and in the course of events in Berlin and Havana, in Moscow and Peiping, and Detroit. One might say, then that He seems to be doing some very strange and contradictory things! But, though we cannot claim to know God's purpose in all this, we do believe that God acts in all these circumstances. The revolutionary changes of our time are not all a mistake: they are not taking place without God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6935</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The real important part of returns isn't taking a number off a W-2 form and putting it in Box No. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41731]]></link><description><![CDATA[The real important part of returns isn't taking a number off a W-2 form and putting it in Box No. 1, ...

Jesus said, What the masters in Israel teach, what the Pharisees and the Scribes teach, is perfectly correct. There was no dogma which was the cause of controversy between Jesus and the nation; there was no new custom that Jesus introduced: He went into the Temple every day, He observed the ordinances and festivals of Israel. What was the subject of dispute and controversy between Jesus and the Jews? It was no doctrine, it was no innovation, it was Jesus Himself whom they rejected. There was an antipathy in them to the person of Jesus: it was the Lord Himself whom they hated, because they hated the Father... But Jesus knew... that it was because He was one with the Father, because He was the express image of His being, because He was the perfect manifestation of the character of God, that they hated Him; and therefore Jesus was pained, not because they hated Him, but because they hated in Him the Father.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7039</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's no night without stars. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66095]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's no night without stars.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66095</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anyone who says they are not interested in politics is like a drowning man who insists he is not interested ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46924]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anyone who says they are not interested in politics is like a drowning man who insists he is not interested in water]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Horses make a landscape look beautiful ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19826]]></link><description><![CDATA[Horses make a landscape look beautiful]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19826</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is now no mystery that some quite influential ‘philosophers’ were ‘mentally’ ill. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24228]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is now no mystery that some quite influential ‘philosophers’ were ‘mentally’ ill.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24228</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Delay in vengeance gives a heavier blow ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11836]]></link><description><![CDATA[Delay in vengeance gives a heavier blow]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11836</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great Fortune brings with it Great misfortune. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49300]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great Fortune brings with it Great misfortune.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49300</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are several things that have happened in this case . . . . ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34459]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are several things that have happened in this case . . . .]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34459</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I lived back in the wild west days, instead of carrying a six-gun in my holster, I'd carry a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11765]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I lived back in the wild west days, instead of carrying a six-gun in my holster, I'd carry a soldering iron.
