All true prayer somehow confesses our absolute dependence on the Lord of life and death. It is, therefore, a deep and vital contact with Him whom we know not only as Lord but as Father. It is when we pray truly that we really are. Our being is brought to a high perfection by this.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A single lie destroys a whole reputation for integrity ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24791]]></link><description><![CDATA[A single lie destroys a whole reputation for integrity]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24791</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are fortunes being made by turning fans into victims and all it starts by creating that frenzy known as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28214]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are fortunes being made by turning fans into victims and all it starts by creating that frenzy known as celebrity worship.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28214</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On his weary couch Fat Luxury, sick of the night's debauch,  Lay groaning, fretful at the obtrusive beam  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26085]]></link><description><![CDATA[On his weary couch Fat Luxury, sick of the night's debauch,  Lay groaning, fretful at the obtrusive beam   That through his lattice peeped derisively.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26085</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Englishman can get along with sex quite perfectly so long as he can pretend that it isn't sex but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36975]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Englishman can get along with sex quite perfectly so long as he can pretend that it isn't sex but something else.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36975</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12800]]></link><description><![CDATA[And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12800</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Painting, n.: The art of protecting flat surfaces from the weather, and exposing them to the critic. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3339]]></link><description><![CDATA[Painting, n.: The art of protecting flat surfaces from the weather, and exposing them to the critic.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3339</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's some fatigue among the average Republican.
