Races and peoples, lo, we stand divided,  And, sharing not our griefs, no joy can share;  By wars and tumults love is mocked, derided  His conquering cross no kingdom wills to bear. Envious of heart, blind-eyed, with tongues confounded, Nation by nation still goes unforgiven, In wrath and fear, by jealousies surrounded,  Building proud towers which shall not reach to heaven. Lust of possession worketh desolations;  There is no meekness in the sons of earth;  Led by no star, the rulers of the nations  Still fail to bring us to the blissful birth: How shall we love Thee, holy hidden Being,  If we love not the world which Thou hast made?  O give us brother-love for better seeing  Thy Word made flesh, and in a manger laid.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No adulation; 'tis the death of virtue; Who flatters, is of all mankind the lowest  Save he who courts ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16164]]></link><description><![CDATA[No adulation; 'tis the death of virtue; Who flatters, is of all mankind the lowest  Save he who courts the flattery.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16164</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can't imagine that I would have been cast in the role, without Jamie Lee giving me a thumbs up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28391]]></link><description><![CDATA[I can't imagine that I would have been cast in the role, without Jamie Lee giving me a thumbs up.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Capital punishment would be more effective as a preventive measure if it were administered prior to the crime. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26894]]></link><description><![CDATA[Capital punishment would be more effective as a preventive measure if it were administered prior to the crime.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26894</guid></item></channel></rss>
