You would be surprised if you knew how soon one begins to feel the shortness of the tether: of how many things, even in middle life, we have to say, "No time for that", "Too late now" and "Not for me". But Nature herself forbids you [young people] to share that experience. A more Christian attitude, which can be attained at any age, is that of leaving futurity in God's hands. We may as well, for God will certainly retain it whether we leave it to Him or not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Will is character in action. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61619]]></link><description><![CDATA[Will is character in action.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In five years, I can see the emergence of a Chinese software company. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40615]]></link><description><![CDATA[In five years, I can see the emergence of a Chinese software company.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trying to get the attention of the audience in the opposite way it's done in Hollywood today, which is to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28760]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trying to get the attention of the audience in the opposite way it's done in Hollywood today, which is to bombard the audience.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28760</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Promised Land always lies on the other side of a Wilderness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22527]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Promised Land always lies on the other side of a Wilderness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22527</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And he buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, over against Bethpeor: but no man knoweth of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18204]]></link><description><![CDATA[And he buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, over against Bethpeor: but no man knoweth of his sepulchre unto this day.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18204</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When it's going in like it was tonight the basket tends to look a lot bigger. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32524]]></link><description><![CDATA[When it's going in like it was tonight the basket tends to look a lot bigger.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To affirm is to make firm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21474]]></link><description><![CDATA[To affirm is to make firm.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21474</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The concert was all about raising awareness, but Peter looked like he was having trouble raising his own awareness - ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32349]]></link><description><![CDATA[The concert was all about raising awareness, but Peter looked like he was having trouble raising his own awareness - he looked wasted,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32349</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the 1930s people went to see films not just to be entertained or to escape the dreariness of their ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43364]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the 1930s people went to see films not just to be entertained or to escape the dreariness of their workaday lives but to gain an education, to see the world, to learn table manners and interior decoration, how to dress, kiss, to laugh and cry, how to react to tragedy and happiness, how to be brave, evil and good.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43364</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile nor the joy of companionship; it is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16951]]></link><description><![CDATA[The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16951</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is simply the reification of the process of living. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57085]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is simply the reification of the process of living.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57085</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who travels for love finds a thousand miles not longer than one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65545]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who travels for love finds a thousand miles not longer than one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65545</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great eagerness in the pursuit of wealth, pleasure, or honor, cannot exist without sin. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21902]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great eagerness in the pursuit of wealth, pleasure, or honor, cannot exist without sin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21902</guid></item></channel></rss>
