Things have all this one taste; and therefore God is the same to this man alike in life's bitterest moments and sweetest pleasures.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8402</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Further rate increases are possible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30899]]></link><description><![CDATA[Further rate increases are possible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30899</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And so, his senses gradually wrapt In a half sleep, he dreams of better worlds,  And dreaming hears thee ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12870]]></link><description><![CDATA[And so, his senses gradually wrapt In a half sleep, he dreams of better worlds,  And dreaming hears thee still, O singing lark;   That singest like an angel in the clouds.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12870</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Modesty: the gentle art of enhancing your charm by pretending not to be aware of it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28066]]></link><description><![CDATA[Modesty: the gentle art of enhancing your charm by pretending not to be aware of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28066</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whether in chains or in laurels, liberty knows nothing but victories. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60627]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whether in chains or in laurels, liberty knows nothing but victories.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Solitude is the nurse of enthusiasm, and enthusiasm is the true parent of genius.
