Poetic simile was strictly limited to statements like: His mighty steed was fast as the wind, on a fairly calm day, say about Force Three, any loose talk about a beloved having a face that could launch a thousand ships would have to be backed by evidence that the object of desire did indeed own a very large seaport. Patrician Olaf II was eventually killed during an experiment conducted in the palace grounds to prove the disputed accuracy of the proverb The Pen is mightier than the Sword.In his memory it was decided that the proverb would from now on include the phrase: only if the Sword is very small and the Pen very sharp.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's bragging rights in your hometown.

If only their being were good, their works would shine forth brightly. Do not imagine that you can ground your salvation upon actions; it must rest on what you are. The ground upon which good character rests is the very same ground from which man's work derives its value, namely, a mind wholly turned to God. Verily, if you were so minded, you might tread on a stone and it would be a more pious work than if you, simply for your own profit, were to receive the Body of the Lord and were wanting in spiritual detachment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8376</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In Genesis, it says that it is not good for a man to be alone; but sometimes it is a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66109]]></link><description><![CDATA[In Genesis, it says that it is not good for a man to be alone; but sometimes it is a great relief.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66109</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we're getting better and better.
