What dreadful noise of waters in mine ears! What ugly sights of death within mine eyes! Methought I saw a thousand fearful wrecks, Ten thousand men that fishes gnawed upon, Wedges of gold, great anchors, heaps of pearl, Inestimable stones, unvalued jewels, All scattered in the bottom of the sea: Some lay in dead men's skulls; and in those holes Where eyes did once inhabit, there were crept, As 't were in scorn of eyes, reflecting gems. -King Richard III. Act i. Sc. 4.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56004</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Too bad when I was a kid there wasn't a guy in our class that everybody called the "Cricket Boy", ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11697]]></link><description><![CDATA[Too bad when I was a kid there wasn't a guy in our class that everybody called the "Cricket Boy", because I would have liked to stand up in class and tell everybody, "You can make fun of the Cricket Boy if you want to, but to me he's just like everybody else." Then everybody would leave the Cricket Boy alone, and I'd invite him over to spend the night at my house, but after about five minutes of that loud chirping I'd have to kick him out. Maybe later we could get up a petition to get the Cricket Family run out of town. Bye, Cricket Boy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can feel the wind go by when I run. It feels good.
