I remember we'd all pile into the car - I forget what kind it was - and drive and drive. I'm not sure where we'd go, but I think there were some trees there. The smell of something was strong in the air as we played whatever sport we played. I remember a bigger, older guy we called "Dad." We'd eat some stuff, or not, and then I think we went home. I guess some things never leave you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11730</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and the one that we take the least care of all ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4309]]></link><description><![CDATA[A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and the one that we take the least care of all to acquire.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think this is a bearish report because average hourly earnings are ticking up significantly, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34920]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't think this is a bearish report because average hourly earnings are ticking up significantly,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34920</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Then hasten to be drunk, the business of the day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22919]]></link><description><![CDATA[Then hasten to be drunk, the business of the day.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22919</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing which power cannot believe of itself, when it is praised as equal to the gods. [Lat., Nihil ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47950]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing which power cannot believe of itself, when it is praised as equal to the gods. [Lat., Nihil est quod credere de se  Non possit, quum laudatur dis aequa potestas.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47950</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great works are performed not by strength but by perseverance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64936]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great works are performed not by strength but by perseverance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64936</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the first of all problems for a man to find out what kind of work he is to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62082]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the first of all problems for a man to find out what kind of work he is to do in this universe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62082</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17046]]></link><description><![CDATA[When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17046</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Come to the edge/ No, we will fall/ Come to the edge/ No, we will fall/They came./ He pushed them. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21439]]></link><description><![CDATA[Come to the edge/ No, we will fall/ Come to the edge/ No, we will fall/They came./ He pushed them.

A plausible form of an outward life, that has only learned rules and modes of religion by use and custom, often keeps the soul for some time at ease, though all its inward root and ground of sin has never been shaken or molested, though it has never tasted of the bitter waters of repentance and has only known the want of a Saviour by hearsay. But things cannot pass thus: sooner or later repentance must have a broken and a contrite heart; we must with our blessed Lord go over the brook Cedron, and with Him sweat great drops of sorrow before He can say for us, as He said for Himself: "It is finished.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To me there has never been a higher source of earthly honor or distinction than that connected with advances in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65429]]></link><description><![CDATA[To me there has never been a higher source of earthly honor or distinction than that connected with advances in science.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Low humidity and high winds allow for a fire to get out of control. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37351]]></link><description><![CDATA[Low humidity and high winds allow for a fire to get out of control.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37351</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[David's shooting about 90 percent from the free throw line. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33766]]></link><description><![CDATA[David's shooting about 90 percent from the free throw line.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33766</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you wish another to keep your secret, first keep it to yourself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54988]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you wish another to keep your secret, first keep it to yourself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54988</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We think one of the more exciting opportunities this year in the market are in the tech sector. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34032]]></link><description><![CDATA[We think one of the more exciting opportunities this year in the market are in the tech sector.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34032</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am in earnest--I will not equivocate--I will not excuse--I will not retreat a single inch and I will be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53958]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am in earnest--I will not equivocate--I will not excuse--I will not retreat a single inch and I will be heard.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53958</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be wholly devoted to some intellectual exercise is to have succeeded in life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64179]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be wholly devoted to some intellectual exercise is to have succeeded in life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64179</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Energy costs are a growing concern among Maine?s working families.

I promise thee, Christ will not hear their excuse; for He himself suffered harm for our sakes, and for our salvation was put to extreme death. I wis, if it had pleased Him, He might have saved us and never felt pain; but in suffering pains and death He did give us example, and teach us how we should do one for another, as He did for us all; for, as He saith himself, "he that will be mine, let him deny himself, and follow me, in bearing my cross and suffering my pains."
