Have Hope. Though clouds environ round,  And gladness hides her face in scorn,  Put off the shadow from thy brow:  No night but hath its morn. Have Faith. Where'er thy bark is driven -  The calm's disport, the tempest's mirth - Know this: God rules the hosts of heaven,  The inhabitants of earth. Have Love. Not love alone for one,  But man, as man, thy brother call;  And scatter, like a circling sun,  Thy charities on all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Kim kept going back to medical, complaining about the contractions, but they just kept sending her back to her cell. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40763]]></link><description><![CDATA[Kim kept going back to medical, complaining about the contractions, but they just kept sending her back to her cell.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40763</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now, really, this appears the common case Of putting too much Sabbath into Sunday--  But what is your opinion, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54590]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now, really, this appears the common case Of putting too much Sabbath into Sunday--  But what is your opinion, Mrs. Grundy?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All crush'd and stone-cast in behaviour, She stood as a marble would stand,  Then the Saviour bent down, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5705]]></link><description><![CDATA[All crush'd and stone-cast in behaviour, She stood as a marble would stand,  Then the Saviour bent down, and the Saviour   In silence wrote on in the sand.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5705</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are taught you must blame your father, your sisters, your brothers, the school, the teachers - but never blame ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64586]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are taught you must blame your father, your sisters, your brothers, the school, the teachers - but never blame yourself.
