It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. {5} It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. {6} Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. {7} It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. {8} Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. {9} For we know in part and we prophesy in part, {10} but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. {11} When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. {12} Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. {13} And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When your dreams turn to dust, vacuum ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12848]]></link><description><![CDATA[When your dreams turn to dust, vacuum]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12848</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We turn to God for help when our foundations are shaking, only to learn that it is God who is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17655]]></link><description><![CDATA[We turn to God for help when our foundations are shaking, only to learn that it is God who is shaking them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17655</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poor worms, they hiss at me, whilst I at home Can be contented to applaud myself, . . . with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61402]]></link><description><![CDATA[Poor worms, they hiss at me, whilst I at home Can be contented to applaud myself, . . . with joy  To see how plump my bags are and my barns.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61402</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[decided to desist from all sorts of resistance and to stop our actions against the Israelis. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28616]]></link><description><![CDATA[decided to desist from all sorts of resistance and to stop our actions against the Israelis.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing more requisite in business than dispatch. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5011]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing more requisite in business than dispatch.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5011</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like the watermen that row one way and look another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4396]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like the watermen that row one way and look another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4396</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once you get into it, it's really interesting and you can see how much you free up officers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39930]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once you get into it, it's really interesting and you can see how much you free up officers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39930</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Renowned Spenser, lie a thought more nigh To learned Chaucer, and rare Beaumont lie  A little nearer Spenser, to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55308]]></link><description><![CDATA[Renowned Spenser, lie a thought more nigh To learned Chaucer, and rare Beaumont lie  A little nearer Spenser, to make room   For Shakespeare in your threefold, fourfold tomb.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let no man deceive you with vain words or vain hopes or false notions of a slight and sudden repentance. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6882]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let no man deceive you with vain words or vain hopes or false notions of a slight and sudden repentance.
