He was a great singer, with a unique, behind-the-beat laconic style that perfectly fit his devil-may-care personality, and made very astute choices as to material and arrangers. And perhaps best of all, he never took himself too seriously, either on record or In life! We're thrilled that he's a big part of our artist roster.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everybody wants to eat at the government's table, but nobody wants to do the dishes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18044]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everybody wants to eat at the government's table, but nobody wants to do the dishes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18044</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Optimism: The doctrine, or belief, that everything is beautiful, including what is ugly, everything good, especially the bad, and everything ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62917]]></link><description><![CDATA[Optimism: The doctrine, or belief, that everything is beautiful, including what is ugly, everything good, especially the bad, and everything right that is wrong.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62917</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fly that sips treacle is lost in the sweets. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16223]]></link><description><![CDATA[The fly that sips treacle is lost in the sweets.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16223</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Out of the dusk a shadow, Then a spark;  Out of the cloud a silence,   Then a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14362]]></link><description><![CDATA[Out of the dusk a shadow, Then a spark;  Out of the cloud a silence,   Then a lark;    Out of the heart a rapture,     Then a pain;      Out of the dead, cold ashes,       Life again.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14362</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The face of Garbo is an Idea, that of Hepburn an Event. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1297]]></link><description><![CDATA[The face of Garbo is an Idea, that of Hepburn an Event.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1297</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the morning be first up, and in the evening last to go to bed, for they that sleep catch ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14244]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the morning be first up, and in the evening last to go to bed, for they that sleep catch no fish]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14244</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One who receives this Word, and by it salvation, receives along with it the duty of passing this Word on... ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6463]]></link><description><![CDATA[One who receives this Word, and by it salvation, receives along with it the duty of passing this Word on...

Yet if our world were truly Christian, the change might be a reason for rejoicing. We no longer need our families -- we are therefore free to love them with complete unselfishness. Now at last it is possible to honour our parents genuinely, because they no longer have the power to kill us if we don't. The old sort of honour was sometimes an ugly sham: the son who respects Father only out of fear of punishment is not much of a son, just as the Christian who worships God only out of fear of hell is precious little of a Christian. But the new sort of honour can be a beautiful and holy thing. There are many sweet and sane families bound together by love; there are plenty of experts who remind us that only love can make the modern family work at all. And one must admit that there are plenty of parents very willing to be honoured. The catch is that not so many of them are willing to be honourable.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7887</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When a man becomes familiar with his goddess, she quickly sinks into a woman. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15148]]></link><description><![CDATA[When a man becomes familiar with his goddess, she quickly sinks into a woman.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15148</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The courage of the Poet is to keep ajar the door that leads into madness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46783]]></link><description><![CDATA[The courage of the Poet is to keep ajar the door that leads into madness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46783</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you reach the heart of life you shall find beauty in all things, even in the eyes that are ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3814]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you reach the heart of life you shall find beauty in all things, even in the eyes that are blind to beauty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3814</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Join in the new game that's sweeping the country.
