Their one apparent purpose, pursued with a relentless and furious diligence, is to convert the assumption into a fact. They hunt endlessly for proofs, and, when proofs are lacking, for mere suspicions. The moment they become aware of a definite citizen, John Doe, seeking what is his right under the law, they begin searching feverishly for an excuse for withholding it from him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Measure your mind's height by the shade it casts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27504]]></link><description><![CDATA[Measure your mind's height by the shade it casts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27504</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No wind favors him who has no destined port. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22679]]></link><description><![CDATA[No wind favors him who has no destined port.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22679</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Patrick, Bishop of Armagh, Missionary, Patron of Ireland, c.460  It is generally true that all that is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6448]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Patrick, Bishop of Armagh, Missionary, Patron of Ireland, c.460  It is generally true that all that is required to make men unmindful of what they owe God for any blessing is that they should receive that blessing often and regularly.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6448</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most acute social priority is for individuals to clean up their own mental and emotional messes. -Doc Childre. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26327]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most acute social priority is for individuals to clean up their own mental and emotional messes. -Doc Childre.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26327</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vulgarity is the garlic in the salad of life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61042]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vulgarity is the garlic in the salad of life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The government is vacillating because it is unable to find an agreement within the coalition for partisan reasons, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35812]]></link><description><![CDATA[The government is vacillating because it is unable to find an agreement within the coalition for partisan reasons,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20376]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20376</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't want to achieve immortality through my work; I want to achieve immortality through not dying. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20596]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't want to achieve immortality through my work; I want to achieve immortality through not dying.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have been encouraged by the results of a couple successful campaigns that we've featured to help promote them, but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31640]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have been encouraged by the results of a couple successful campaigns that we've featured to help promote them, but the overall impact of the format has still been nominal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O Blackbird! sing me something well: While all the neighbors shoot thee round,  I keep smooth plats of fruitful ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4286]]></link><description><![CDATA[O Blackbird! sing me something well: While all the neighbors shoot thee round,  I keep smooth plats of fruitful ground,   Where thou may'st warble, eat and dwell.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4286</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we begin with certainties, we shall end in doubts; but if we begin withdoubts, and are patient in them, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21255]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we begin with certainties, we shall end in doubts; but if we begin withdoubts, and are patient in them, we shall end in certainties.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21255</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Man and the LionA man and a Lion traveled together through the forest.

It could not have been known that there was forgiveness with Him. The old covenant could not have been preserved and sinners pardoned. Wherefore, God choose to leave the covenant than sinners unrelieved, than grace unexalted and pardon unexercised... Will we continue on the old bottom of the first covenant? All we can do therein is to set thorns and briars in the way of God, to secure ourselves from His coming against us and upon us with His indignation and fury. Our sins are so, and our righteousness is no better. And what will be the issue? Both they and we shall be trodden down, consumed, and burnt up. What way, then, what remedy is left unto us? Only this of laying hold on the arm and strength of God in that covenant wherein forgiveness of sin is provided.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7392</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ridicule is generally made use of to laugh men out of virtue and good sense, by attacking everything praiseworthy in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54205]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ridicule is generally made use of to laugh men out of virtue and good sense, by attacking everything praiseworthy in human life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dreams don't have deadlines.
