After his death, the example set by this hermit was followed by others who, far from settling in the desert places of the Sahara, set out to mingle with the peopled deserts of the great cities, there to preach the gospel by their example and their very presence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A jury consists of twelve persons chosen to decide who has the better lawyer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23578]]></link><description><![CDATA[A jury consists of twelve persons chosen to decide who has the better lawyer.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23578</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The problem is not whether business will survive in competition with business, but whether any business will survive at all ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5552]]></link><description><![CDATA[The problem is not whether business will survive in competition with business, but whether any business will survive at all in the ;face of social change.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Christian is a man who feels repentance on Sunday for what he did on Saturday and is going to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6871]]></link><description><![CDATA[A Christian is a man who feels repentance on Sunday for what he did on Saturday and is going to do on Monday.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6871</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A gentle houswife marres the houshold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49024]]></link><description><![CDATA[A gentle houswife marres the houshold.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49024</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A nation which has forgotten the quality of courage which in the past has been brought to public life is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43716]]></link><description><![CDATA[A nation which has forgotten the quality of courage which in the past has been brought to public life is not as likely to insist upon or regard that quality in its chosen leaders today - and in fact we have forgotten.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Praise day at night, and life at the end. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49714]]></link><description><![CDATA[Praise day at night, and life at the end.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49714</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But you have signed an agreement with the Russians!
