Yet, on the other hand, we deny, however they may be afflicted, that they ever fall and depart from that certain confidence which they have conceived in the divine mercy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6797</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Humor is the only test of gravity, and gravity of humor; for a subject which will not bear raillery is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61832]]></link><description><![CDATA[Humor is the only test of gravity, and gravity of humor; for a subject which will not bear raillery is suspicious, and a jest which will not bear serious examination is false wit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61832</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not trust the horse, Trojans!

Clearly the more premature an infant is when he is born, the greater likelihood of complications. In fact, according to the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services National Center for Health Statistics, complications stemming from short gestation and low birth weight are the second leading causes of infant mortality in the United States. Ironically, the advanced medical technologies used in the United States tend to increase our infant mortality rate, not decrease it. In the United States, advanced technologies and procedures have made it more practical in recent years for medical professionals to attempt to save severely premature infants. Such attempts do not always succeed, adding to the rate of infant mortality.] Resuscitation is more likely to be attempted on extremely premature babies born in the United States than in many other countries, ... The extremely premature babies on whom resuscitation is unsuccessful are then counted as infant deaths, whereas they are counted as fetal deaths when resuscitation has not been attempted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38393</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Earnings have been good, but what you're starting to see is a return to the attitude about earnings that we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34038]]></link><description><![CDATA[Earnings have been good, but what you're starting to see is a return to the attitude about earnings that we saw in the late 1990's, where you're seeing more talk about whisper numbers, higher expectations, and a more punitive reaction to numbers that disappoint.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34038</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ultimate is finding a place where you have no inhibitions, nothing to hide, where you can learn with one ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37791]]></link><description><![CDATA[The ultimate is finding a place where you have no inhibitions, nothing to hide, where you can learn with one another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37791</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art imitates nature, and necessity is the mother of invention. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44047]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art imitates nature, and necessity is the mother of invention.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How the devil is it that fresh features Have such a charm for us poor human creatures? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48745]]></link><description><![CDATA[How the devil is it that fresh features Have such a charm for us poor human creatures?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48745</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When nothing seems to help, I go look at a stonecutter hammering away athis rock perhaps a hundred times without ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22622]]></link><description><![CDATA[When nothing seems to help, I go look at a stonecutter hammering away athis rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it.Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it wasnot that blow that did it, but all that had gone before.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22622</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tommy looked fine.

And why is Thy Church so uncomfortable with its men of action? And why do men of spirit so often have to work apart from, and even against it?
