In "believing" on Him, we justify, enjoy, and adore ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fortune favors the brave. [Lat., Fortes fortuna adjuvat.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51764]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fortune favors the brave. [Lat., Fortes fortuna adjuvat.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51764</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Eternity gives nothing back of what one leaves out of the minutes. [Ger., Was man von der Minute ausgeslagen  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14209]]></link><description><![CDATA[Eternity gives nothing back of what one leaves out of the minutes. [Ger., Was man von der Minute ausgeslagen  Gibt keine Ewigkeit zuruck.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness does not lie in happiness, but in the achievement of it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64453]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happiness does not lie in happiness, but in the achievement of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64453</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lives of great men all remind us we can make our lives sublime.
