It is simply absurd to say you believe, or even want to believe, in Him, if you do not do anything He tells you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8128</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best education in the world is that got by struggling to get a living. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13460]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best education in the world is that got by struggling to get a living.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13460</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The difference between fiction and reality?
