But the only time that is surely yours is the present, hence this is the time to speak the word of appreciation and sympathy, to do the generous deed, to forgive the fault of a thoughtless friend, to sacrifice self a little more for others. Today is the day in which to express your noblest qualities of mind and heart, to do at least one worthy thing which you have long postponed, and to use your God-given abilities for the enrichment of someone less fortunate. Today you can make your life - significant and worthwhile. The present is yours to do with as you will. -Grenville Kleiser.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44704</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are thrilled and honored to host such well known and admired outdoor sports celebrities, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39931]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are thrilled and honored to host such well known and admired outdoor sports celebrities,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39931</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Chicken is the Countries, but the Citie eats it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49812]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Chicken is the Countries, but the Citie eats it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first time you see Winston Churchill you see all his faults and the rest of your life you spend ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60794]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first time you see Winston Churchill you see all his faults and the rest of your life you spend discovering his virtues.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60794</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Old Woman and the PhysicianAn old woman having lost the use of her eyes, called in a Physician to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1569]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Old Woman and the PhysicianAn old woman having lost the use of her eyes, called in a Physician to heal them, and made this bargain with him in the presence of witnesses: that if he should cure her blindness, he should receive from her a sum of money; but if her infirmity remained, she should give him nothing. This agreement being made, the Physician, time after time, applied his salve to her eyes, and on every visit took something away, stealing all her property little by little. And when he had got all she had, he healed her and demanded the promised payment. The Old Woman, when she recovered her sight and saw none of her goods in her house, would give him nothing. The Physician insisted on his claim, and. as she still refused, summoned her before the Judge. The Old Woman, standing up in the Court, argued: This man here speaks the truth in what he says; for I did promise to give him a sum of money if I should recover my sight: but if I continued blind, I was to give him nothing. Now he declares that I am healed. I on the contrary affirm that I am still blind; for when I lost the use of my eyes, I saw in my house various chattels and valuable goods: but now, though he swears I am cured of my blindness, I am not able to see a single thing in it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We've been through the fire and things are just starting to shine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30928]]></link><description><![CDATA[We've been through the fire and things are just starting to shine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30928</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[War is cruel and you cannot refine it. •William T.

They have nothing to say as from themselves. Their narratives place us without preface, and keep us without comment, among external scenes, in full view of facts, and in contact with the living person whom they teach us to know...
