But must we preachers follow and be snippety, too?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7848</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My object all sublime I shall achieve in time--  To let the punishment fit the crime. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52565]]></link><description><![CDATA[My object all sublime I shall achieve in time--  To let the punishment fit the crime.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52565</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Before I knew the best part of my life had come, it had gone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24949]]></link><description><![CDATA[Before I knew the best part of my life had come, it had gone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24949</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every time you work, you have to do it all over again, to rid yourself of this dross.
