Just as a fish is adapted to life in the sea. This view of our situation fills us with a certain awed and humble gladness. It delivers us from all niggling fuss about ourselves, prevents us from feeling self-important about our own little spiritual adventures; and yet makes them worth while as part of one great spiritual adventure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His spiritual life has been exaggerated by a chronic attack of mental gallstones. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57412]]></link><description><![CDATA[His spiritual life has been exaggerated by a chronic attack of mental gallstones.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57412</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63610]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63610</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thought is a dangerous thing; it makes one see that the popular notions of society are wrong. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1092]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thought is a dangerous thing; it makes one see that the popular notions of society are wrong.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1092</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Her treading would not bend a blade of grass, Or shake the downy blow-ball from his stalk! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16413]]></link><description><![CDATA[Her treading would not bend a blade of grass, Or shake the downy blow-ball from his stalk!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16413</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The highest qualities of character must be earned. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41193]]></link><description><![CDATA[The highest qualities of character must be earned.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Subdue your appetites, my dears, and you've conquered human nature. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/194]]></link><description><![CDATA[Subdue your appetites, my dears, and you've conquered human nature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/194</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[False friendship, like the ivy, decays and ruins the walls it embraces; but true friendship gives new life and animation ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16960]]></link><description><![CDATA[False friendship, like the ivy, decays and ruins the walls it embraces; but true friendship gives new life and animation to the object it supports.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16960</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A period of travel and relaxation when you take twice the clothes and half the money you need. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60314]]></link><description><![CDATA[A period of travel and relaxation when you take twice the clothes and half the money you need.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60314</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[True thanksgiving means that we need to thank God for what He has done for us, and not to tell ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18187]]></link><description><![CDATA[True thanksgiving means that we need to thank God for what He has done for us, and not to tell Him what we have done for Him. -.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18187</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Youth is a disease from which we all recover. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1815]]></link><description><![CDATA[Youth is a disease from which we all recover.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1815</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good friends are like stars....
