And how absurd would it be that in satisfying men you should incur the displeasure of him for whose sake you obey men themselves! The Lord, therefore, is the King of Kings, who, when he has opened his sacred mouth, must alone be heard, before all and above all men; next to him we are subject to those men who are in authority over us, but only in him. If they command anything against him, let it go unesteemed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When I do good, I feel good.

Blessed hills, that heard the song Of the glorious angel-throng, Swelling all your slopes along. Happy shepherds, on whose ear Fell the tidings glad and dear, "God to man is drawing near." Happy, happy, Bethlehem, Judah's least but brightest gem, Where the rod from Jesse's stem, Scion of a princely race, Sprung in Heaven's own perfect grace, Yet in feeble lowliness. This, the woman's promised seed, Abram's mighty Son indeed; Succourer of earth's great need. This the victor in our war, This the glory see afar, This the light of Jacob's star! Happy Judah, rise and own Him the heir of David's throne David's Lord, and David's Son. Let the dayspring from on high. That arose in Judah's sky. Cover earth eternally. Babe of Bethlehem, to Thee, Infant of eternity, Everlasting glory be!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here's that which is too weak to be a sinner: Honest water, which ne'er left man i' th' mire. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61301]]></link><description><![CDATA[Here's that which is too weak to be a sinner: Honest water, which ne'er left man i' th' mire.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61301</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To each man is reserved a work which he alone can do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21087]]></link><description><![CDATA[To each man is reserved a work which he alone can do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21087</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world thinks eccentricity in great things is genius, but in small things, only crazy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13286]]></link><description><![CDATA[The world thinks eccentricity in great things is genius, but in small things, only crazy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13286</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Words learn'd by rote a parrot may rehearse, But talking is not always to converse,  Not more distinct from ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58608]]></link><description><![CDATA[Words learn'd by rote a parrot may rehearse, But talking is not always to converse,  Not more distinct from harmony divine   The constant creaking of a country sign.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58608</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hell is paved with the skulls of great scholars, and paled in with the bone of great men. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19134]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hell is paved with the skulls of great scholars, and paled in with the bone of great men.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19134</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is a Sonnet?
