For centuries they have been surrounded by Christianity; they live immersed in the waters of its benefits. And yet it has not penetrated their hearts; they do not love it. The fault is not in Christianity, but in men's hearts, which have been hardened by materialism and intellectualism.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The dullard's envy of brilliant men is always assuaged by the suspicion that they will come to a bad end. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22490]]></link><description><![CDATA[The dullard's envy of brilliant men is always assuaged by the suspicion that they will come to a bad end.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Another thing that's pathetic is this rule that you have to look ugly to get respect as an actress.
