And doubtless he spared no kind of people, but was indifferent to all men, as well rich as poor, to the great shame of no small number of men nowadays.

And unexpressed feelings come forth later in uglier ways. Psychosomatic illnesses often are the reincarnation of cumulative resentment, deep disappointment and disillusionment repressed by the Lose/Win mentality. Disproportionate rage or anger, overreaction to minor provocation, and cynicism are other embodiments of suppressed emotion. People who are constantly repressing, not transcending feelings toward a higher meaning find that it affects the quality of their relationships with others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The heart has its reasons which the mind cannot comprehend. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25799]]></link><description><![CDATA[The heart has its reasons which the mind cannot comprehend.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25799</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May you look back on the past with as much pleasure as you look forward to the future. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19416]]></link><description><![CDATA[May you look back on the past with as much pleasure as you look forward to the future.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Boxing is a celebration of the lost religion of masculinity all the more trenchant for its being lost. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4790]]></link><description><![CDATA[Boxing is a celebration of the lost religion of masculinity all the more trenchant for its being lost.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4790</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am the beneficiary of a lucky break in the genetic sweepstakes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19199]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am the beneficiary of a lucky break in the genetic sweepstakes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19199</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The relationship is the communication bridge between people. -Alfred Kadushin. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9071]]></link><description><![CDATA[The relationship is the communication bridge between people. -Alfred Kadushin.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9071</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What other people may find in poetry or art museums, I find in the flight of a good drive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57475]]></link><description><![CDATA[What other people may find in poetry or art museums, I find in the flight of a good drive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57475</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Absolute power corrupts even when exercised for humane purposes.

But let me tell you that herein you put an extremely difficult task upon us, in expecting that we should pour wine and oil into the wound before it be searched, and speak smooth and comfortable things to a man that is but just brought to a sense of the long course of a lewd and wicked life impenitently continued in. Alas! what comfort can we give to men in such a case? We are loth to drive them to despair; and yet we must not destroy them by presumption; pity and good nature do strongly tempt us to make the best of their case and to give them all the little hopes which with any kind of reason we can --and God knows it is but very little that we can give to such persons upon good ground, for it all depends upon the degree and sincerity of their repentance, which God only knows, and we can but guess at.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No bird has ever uttered note  That was not in some first bird's throat; Since Eden's freshness and man's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45299]]></link><description><![CDATA[No bird has ever uttered note  That was not in some first bird's throat; Since Eden's freshness and man's fall  No rose has been original.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45299</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Long ailments wear out pain, and long hopes, joy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45384]]></link><description><![CDATA[Long ailments wear out pain, and long hopes, joy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45384</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you cannot make up your mind which of two evenly balanced courses of action you should take -- choose ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4476]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you cannot make up your mind which of two evenly balanced courses of action you should take -- choose the bolder.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4476</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Brother, brother; we are both in the wrong. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14157]]></link><description><![CDATA[Brother, brother; we are both in the wrong.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14157</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every decision is liberating, even if it leads to disaster.
