When your heart is covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then, and then only, are you grown old. And then, indeed as the ballad says, you just fade away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62528</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is wonderful what strength of purpose and boldness and energy of will are roused by the assurance that we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4481]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is wonderful what strength of purpose and boldness and energy of will are roused by the assurance that we are doing our duty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4481</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where the pools are bright and deep Where the gray trout lies asleep,  Up the river and o'er the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59741]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where the pools are bright and deep Where the gray trout lies asleep,  Up the river and o'er the lea   That's the way for Billy and me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59741</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Custom is second nature. [Lat., Consuetudo est secunda natura.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48604]]></link><description><![CDATA[Custom is second nature. [Lat., Consuetudo est secunda natura.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48604</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vice is a creature of such hideous mien... that the more you see it the better you like it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/941]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vice is a creature of such hideous mien... that the more you see it the better you like it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/941</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hypothetical questions get hypothetical answers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25442]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hypothetical questions get hypothetical answers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25442</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The boat was overturned, just floating upside down in the water.

She had all sorts of wonderful little idiosyncrasies. She used to fart in her sleep. I thought I’d share that with you. One night it was so loud it woke the dog up. She woke up and went ‘ah was that you?’ And I didn’t have the heart to tell her. Oh!Will: She woke herself up?Sean: Ah...! But Will, she’s been dead for 2 years, and that's the shit I remember: wonderful stuff you know? Little things like that. Those are the things I miss the most. The little idiosyncrasies that only I know about: that's what made her my wife. Oh she had the goods on me too, she knew all my little peccadilloes. People call these things imperfections, but there not.
