This is the state of man: to-day he puts forth The tender leaves of hopes; to-morrow blossoms, And bears his blushing honours thick upon him; The third day comes a frost, a killing frost, And when he thinks, good easy man, full surely His greatness is a-ripening, nips his root, And then he falls, as I do. I have ventured, Like little wanton boys that swim on bladders, This many summers in a sea of glory, But far beyond my depth: my high-blown pride At length broke under me and now has left me, Weary and old with service, to the mercy Of a rude stream, that must forever hide me. Vain pomp and glory of this world, I hate ye: I feel my heart new opened. O, how wretched Is that poor man that hangs on princes' favours! There is betwixt that smile we would aspire to, That sweet aspect of princes, and their ruin, More pangs and fears than wars or women have: And when he falls, he falls like Lucifer, Never to hope again. -King Henry VIII. Act iii. Sc. 2.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56041</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Paris wrapped in night! half nebulousThe moonlight streams o'er the blue-shadowed roofs..A lovely frame for this wild battlescene Beneath the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3862]]></link><description><![CDATA[Paris wrapped in night! half nebulousThe moonlight streams o'er the blue-shadowed roofs..A lovely frame for this wild battlescene Beneath the vapor's floating scarves, the SeineTrembles, mysterious, like a magic mirrorCyrano Act 5.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3862</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Are you any relation to your brother Marv?(spoken to announcer Steve Albert) ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57560]]></link><description><![CDATA[Are you any relation to your brother Marv?(spoken to announcer Steve Albert)]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It [Chinese Labour in South Africa] could not, in the opinion of His Majesty's Government, be classified as slavery in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56581]]></link><description><![CDATA[It [Chinese Labour in South Africa] could not, in the opinion of His Majesty's Government, be classified as slavery in the extreme acceptance of the word without some risk of terminological inexactitude.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you want to make your dreams come true, the first thing you have to do is wake up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12884]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you want to make your dreams come true, the first thing you have to do is wake up.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12884</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I listened hard but could not see.
