From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,  Much pleasure, then from thee much more, must flow,  And soonest our best men with thee do go,  Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery. Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men, And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell,  And poppy, or charms, can make us sleep as well,  And better than thy stroke. Why swell'st thou then? One short sleep past, we wake eternally,  And Death shall be no more: Death, thou shalt die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8096</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The known propensity of a democracy is to licentiousness which the ambitious call, and the ignorant believe to be liberty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34927]]></link><description><![CDATA[The known propensity of a democracy is to licentiousness which the ambitious call, and the ignorant believe to be liberty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34927</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Accidents will occur in the best regulated families. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/292]]></link><description><![CDATA[Accidents will occur in the best regulated families.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/292</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The toughest thing about success is that you've got to keep on being a success. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58177]]></link><description><![CDATA[The toughest thing about success is that you've got to keep on being a success.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58177</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The specialty egg segment has grown dramatically in the last eight or nine years. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28705]]></link><description><![CDATA[The specialty egg segment has grown dramatically in the last eight or nine years.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28705</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love Mickey Mouse more than any woman I have ever known. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63359]]></link><description><![CDATA[I love Mickey Mouse more than any woman I have ever known.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63359</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The wind in ones face makes one wise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49933]]></link><description><![CDATA[The wind in ones face makes one wise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49933</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every little thing counts in a crisis. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10716]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every little thing counts in a crisis.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There must be more to life than having everything. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26502]]></link><description><![CDATA[There must be more to life than having everything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26502</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In less than 24 hours, we completely filled our (greeting) time slots at PTIA and gave out our entire supply ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35445]]></link><description><![CDATA[In less than 24 hours, we completely filled our (greeting) time slots at PTIA and gave out our entire supply of posters.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35445</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men have become the tools of their tools. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9522]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men have become the tools of their tools.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9522</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It has all the contortions of the sibyl without the inspiration. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9145]]></link><description><![CDATA[It has all the contortions of the sibyl without the inspiration.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9145</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Psychoanalysis has changed American psychology from a diagnostic to a therapeutic science, not because so many patients are cured by ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52033]]></link><description><![CDATA[Psychoanalysis has changed American psychology from a diagnostic to a therapeutic science, not because so many patients are cured by the psychoanalytic technique, but because of the new understanding of psychiatric patients it has given us, and the new and different concept of illness and health.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52033</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We want to get him some games.

Most people are the 8-color boxes, but what you're really looking for are the 64-color boxes with the sharpeners on the back. I fancy myself to be a 64-color box, though I've got a few missing. It's ok though, because I've got some more vibrant colors like periwinkle at my disposal. I have a bit of a problem though in that I can only meet the 8-color boxes. Does anyone else have that problem? I mean there are so many different colors of life, of feeling, of articulation.. so when I meet someone who's an 8-color type.. I'm like, "hey girl, magenta!" and she's like, "oh, you mean purple!" and she goes off on her purple thing, and I'm like, "no - I want magenta!"]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46029</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Teach me to feel another's woe,  To hide the fault I see: That mercy I to others show,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27373]]></link><description><![CDATA[Teach me to feel another's woe,  To hide the fault I see: That mercy I to others show,  That mercy show to me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27373</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each department of knowledge passes through three stages.
