Most people are the 8-color boxes, but what you're really looking for are the 64-color boxes with the sharpeners on the back. I fancy myself to be a 64-color box, though I've got a few missing. It's ok though, because I've got some more vibrant colors like periwinkle at my disposal. I have a bit of a problem though in that I can only meet the 8-color boxes. Does anyone else have that problem? I mean there are so many different colors of life, of feeling, of articulation.. so when I meet someone who's an 8-color type.. I'm like, "hey girl, magenta!" and she's like, "oh, you mean purple!" and she goes off on her purple thing, and I'm like, "no - I want magenta!"]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46029</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be good and you will be lonely ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18242]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be good and you will be lonely]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18242</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He prayeth well who loveth well Both man and bird and beast. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48054]]></link><description><![CDATA[He prayeth well who loveth well Both man and bird and beast.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48054</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Kingdom of the LionTHE beasts of the field and forest had a Lion as their king.

He was neither wrathful, cruel, nor tyrannical, but just and gentle as a king could be. During his reign he made a royal proclamation for a general assembly of all the birds and beasts, and drew up conditions for a universal league, in which the Wolf and the Lamb, the Panther and the Kid, the Tiger and the Stag, the Dog and the Hare, should live together in perfect peace and amity. The Hare said, Oh, how I have longed to see this day, in which the weak shall take their place with impunity by the side of the strong. And after the Hare said this, he ran for his life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1515</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She's invaluable.

Thereafter, feeling his life a burden from the shame and ridicule to which he was exposed, he schemed to convince all the other Foxes that being tailless was much more attractive, thus making up for his own deprivation. He assembled a good many Foxes and publicly advised them to cut off their tails, saying that they would not only look much better without them, but that they would get rid of the weight of the brush, which was a very great inconvenience. One of them interrupting him said, If you had not yourself lost your tail, my friend, you would not thus counsel us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mental pleasure are never cloy; unlike those of the body, they are increased by repetition, approved by reflection, and strengthened ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4447]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mental pleasure are never cloy; unlike those of the body, they are increased by repetition, approved by reflection, and strengthened by enjoyment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4447</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The theme from here until after Labor Day is going to be more postponements. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35921]]></link><description><![CDATA[The theme from here until after Labor Day is going to be more postponements.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35921</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comedy deflates the sense precisely so that the underlying lubricity and malice may bubble to the surface. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26224]]></link><description><![CDATA[Comedy deflates the sense precisely so that the underlying lubricity and malice may bubble to the surface.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26224</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a good thing he's not still in office.

If that is where it rests, it is an optimism which will suffer ultimate disillusionment. Romanticism will be transmuted into cynicism, as it has always been in the world's history. The faith of a Christian is something quite different from this optimism. It is trust in God, in a good God who created a good world, though the world is not now good; in a good God, powerful and good enough finally to destroy the evil that men do and redeem them of their sins. This kind of faith is not optimism. It does not, in fact, arise until optimism breaks down and men cease to trust in themselves that they are righteous.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The groves of Blarney They look so charming  Down by the purling   Of sweet, silent brooks. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23049]]></link><description><![CDATA[The groves of Blarney They look so charming  Down by the purling   Of sweet, silent brooks.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23049</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a man truly wants to communicate with his wife, he must enter her world of emotions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26419]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a man truly wants to communicate with his wife, he must enter her world of emotions.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26419</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unable are the loved to die for love is immortality. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25686]]></link><description><![CDATA[Unable are the loved to die for love is immortality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25686</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Night comes, world-jewelled, . . . The stars rush forth in myriads as to wage  War with the lines ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44511]]></link><description><![CDATA[Night comes, world-jewelled, . . . The stars rush forth in myriads as to wage  War with the lines of Darkness; and the moon,   Pale ghost of Night, comes haunting the cold earth    After the sun's red sea-death--quietless.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art is not a handicraft, it is the transmission of feeling the artist has experienced.
