They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. At first the infant, Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms. And then the whining school-boy, with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like snail Unwillingly to school. And then the lover, Sighing like furnace, with a woful ballad Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier, Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard; Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel, Seeking the bubble reputation Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice, In fair round belly with good capon lined, With eyes severe and beard of formal cut, Full of wise saws and modern instances; And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts Into the lean and slipper'd pantaloon, With spectacles on nose and pouch on side; His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice, Turning again toward childish treble, pipes And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all, That ends this strange eventful history, Is second childishness and mere oblivion, Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything. -As You Like It. Act ii. Sc. 7.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55658</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness is the utilization of one's talents along lines of excellence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60945]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happiness is the utilization of one's talents along lines of excellence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60945</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sun shineth upon the dunghill and is not corrupted. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58297]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sun shineth upon the dunghill and is not corrupted.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58297</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[Gratitude is the memory of the heart. [Fr., La reconnaissance est la memoire du coeur.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18157]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gratitude is the memory of the heart. [Fr., La reconnaissance est la memoire du coeur.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18157</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Negotiations, in the view of the government, are the only constructive way to a solution of this question.

Now I'm a little more . . . jaded •Source Unknown  People say the word 'naive' as if it were a bad thing. Frankly, I believe that being naive, like a child, is being innocent. Being innocent is happiness. Once innocence is lost there is no turning back, we have now become cynical and jaded adults •Source Unknown  We'll have to change our jaded ways, but I've loved these days. •Billy Joel  ...time misspent and faculties mis-employed, and senses jaded by labor, or impaired by excess, cannot be recalled any more than that freshness of the heart, before it has become aware of the deceits of others, and of its own. •John Randolph  I'm not jaded but I'm not controlled by my emotions. It's not that I'm emotionless, I just have the ability not to be controlled by things like love and hate. •Marilyn Manson  If I don't make it know that, I've loved you all along.
