Discourse well framed -- forgot as soon as heard -- Man's thin dilution of the living Word. O Preacher, leave the rhetorician's arts; Preach Christ, the Food of hungry human hearts; Hold fast to science, history, or creed, But preach the Answer to our human need, That in this place, at least, it may be said No hungry sheep looks up and is not fed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8323</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A good marriage is at least 80 percent good luck in finding the right person at the right time.
