You comfort us in sorrow and bind up our wounds:  in sickness you nurse us,  and with pure milk you feed us. Jesus, by your dying we are born to new life:  by your anguish and labour we come forth in joy. Despair turns to hope through your sweet goodness:  through your gentleness we find comfort in fear. Your warmth gives life to the dead:  your touch makes sinners righteous. Lord Jesus, in your mercy heal us:  in your love and tenderness remake us. In your compassion bring grace and forgiveness:  for the beauty of heaven may your love prepare us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7707</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think the reason she's done so many of these films is because the '50s is such a rich era ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37206]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think the reason she's done so many of these films is because the '50s is such a rich era for describing the journey of a woman,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Well may your heart believe the truths I tell; 'Tis virtue makes the bliss, where'er we dwell. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60778]]></link><description><![CDATA[Well may your heart believe the truths I tell; 'Tis virtue makes the bliss, where'er we dwell.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60778</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each epoch has found in the Gospels what it sought to find there, and has overlooked what it wished to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53509]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each epoch has found in the Gospels what it sought to find there, and has overlooked what it wished to overlook.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The essence of science: ask an impertinent question, and you are on the way to a pertinent answer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54808]]></link><description><![CDATA[The essence of science: ask an impertinent question, and you are on the way to a pertinent answer.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54808</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One measure of friendship consists not in the number of things friends can discuss, but in the number of things ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16739]]></link><description><![CDATA[One measure of friendship consists not in the number of things friends can discuss, but in the number of things they need no longer mention.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16739</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Play has been man's most useful preoccupation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46679]]></link><description><![CDATA[Play has been man's most useful preoccupation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46679</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Surely the fact that a uniformed police officer is wearing his hair below his collar will make him no less ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46880]]></link><description><![CDATA[Surely the fact that a uniformed police officer is wearing his hair below his collar will make him no less identifiable as a policeman.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46880</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perhaps the most widespread misunderstanding of economics is that it applies solely to financial transactions.
