All I can say to you is this, God bless you precious friend.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16829</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My Karma ran over your dogma. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23681]]></link><description><![CDATA[My Karma ran over your dogma.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23681</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never be satisfied with what you achieve, because it all pales in comparison with what you are capable of doing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/323]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never be satisfied with what you achieve, because it all pales in comparison with what you are capable of doing in the future.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/323</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People say that money is not the key to happiness, but I always figured if you have enough money, you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23688]]></link><description><![CDATA[People say that money is not the key to happiness, but I always figured if you have enough money, you can have a key made.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23688</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you don't do this now people will not be able to recover. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29099]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you don't do this now people will not be able to recover.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29099</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wisely, and slow.

The more knowledge, the more obligation. The maintaining of revealed doctrine becomes blasphemy if it is not borne out by the corresponding testimony of the life. He who is always appealing to the Word of God without his life and conduct corresponding to this knowledge of God, dishonours God's name, making Him an object of mockery and hatred. It is just those who know so well how to talk about God who make His name hateful among men, because their lives darken the picture of God and turn it into a caricature. The Lord is judged by the life of His servants; this is the truer, the more zealously they appeal to Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6191</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When a man of forty falls in love with a girl of twenty, it isn't her youth he is seeking ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1814]]></link><description><![CDATA[When a man of forty falls in love with a girl of twenty, it isn't her youth he is seeking but his own.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1814</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In poison there is physic; and these news, Having been well, that would have made me sick,  Being sick, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26716]]></link><description><![CDATA[In poison there is physic; and these news, Having been well, that would have made me sick,  Being sick, have in some measure made me well.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think that there's a lot of passion with these people. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41004]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think that there's a lot of passion with these people.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41004</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's no excuse for it.
