O Conqueror renowned! O Source of peace ineffable,   In whom all joys are found:  When once you visit darkened hearts   Then truth begins to shine, Then earthly vanity departs,   Then kindles love divine. O Jesus, light of all below,   The fount of life and fire,  Surpassing all the joys we know,   All that we can desire: May ev'ry heart confess your name,   Forever you adore, And, seeking you, itself inflame   To seek you more and more! Oh, may our tongues forever bless,   May we love you alone  And ever in our lives express   The image of your own!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7967</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Passing into higher forms of desire, that which slumbered in the plant, and fitfully stirred in the beast, awakes in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11952]]></link><description><![CDATA[Passing into higher forms of desire, that which slumbered in the plant, and fitfully stirred in the beast, awakes in the man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We knew it would rain, for the poplars showed The white of their leaves, the amber grain  Shrunk in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52929]]></link><description><![CDATA[We knew it would rain, for the poplars showed The white of their leaves, the amber grain  Shrunk in the wind,--and the lightning now   Is tangled in tremulous skeins of rain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A successful individual typically sets his next goal somewhat but not too much above his last achievement.

Only when even the smallest link is securely interlocked is the chain unbreakable. A community which allows unemployed members to exist within it will perish because of them. It will be well, therefore, if every member receives a definite task to perform for the community, that he may know in hours of doubt that he, too, is not useless and unusable. Every Christian community must realize that not only do the weak need the strong, but also that the strong cannot exist without the weak. The elimination of the weak is the death of the fellowship.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8582</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Universities incline wits to sophistry and affectation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25387]]></link><description><![CDATA[Universities incline wits to sophistry and affectation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25387</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When Misfortune is asleep, let no one wake her. [Lat., Quando la mala ventura se duerme, nadie la despierte.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42804]]></link><description><![CDATA[When Misfortune is asleep, let no one wake her. [Lat., Quando la mala ventura se duerme, nadie la despierte.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nor can his blessed soul look down from heaven, Or break the eternal sabbath of his rest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19091]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nor can his blessed soul look down from heaven, Or break the eternal sabbath of his rest.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19091</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's been a real shot in the arm for the tie business. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35655]]></link><description><![CDATA[He's been a real shot in the arm for the tie business.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35655</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A real diplomat is one who can cut his neighbor's throat without having his neighbor notice it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12315]]></link><description><![CDATA[A real diplomat is one who can cut his neighbor's throat without having his neighbor notice it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12315</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Of government, at least in democratic states, it may be said briefly that it is an agency engaged wholesale, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47501]]></link><description><![CDATA[Of government, at least in democratic states, it may be said briefly that it is an agency engaged wholesale, and as a matter of solemn duty, in the performance of acts which all self-respecting individuals refrain from as a matter of common decency.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love always creates, it never destroys.
