We allowed you a charade of trivial freedoms in order to avoid making those impositions on you that are in the end both the training ground and proving ground for true independence. We pronounced you strong when you were still weak in order to avoid the struggles with you that would have fed your true strength. We proclaimed you sound when you were foolish in order to avoid taking part in the long, slow, slogging effort that is the only route to genuine maturity of mind and feeling. Thus, it was no small anomaly of your growing up that while you were the most indulged generation, you were also in many ways the most abandoned to your own meager devices by those into whose safe-keeping you had been given.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5976</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She'd have you spew up what you've drunk when you were out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27270]]></link><description><![CDATA[She'd have you spew up what you've drunk when you were out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27270</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Saddle your dreams before you ride em. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63238]]></link><description><![CDATA[Saddle your dreams before you ride em.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63238</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The essence of all beauty, I call love, The attribute, the evidence, and end,  The consummation to the inward ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3838]]></link><description><![CDATA[The essence of all beauty, I call love, The attribute, the evidence, and end,  The consummation to the inward sense   Of beauty apprehended from without,    I still call love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The king of Spain is a great potentate, who stands with one foot in the east and the other in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57313]]></link><description><![CDATA[The king of Spain is a great potentate, who stands with one foot in the east and the other in the west; and the sun never sets that it does not shine on some of his dominions.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Charles Simeon, Pastor, Teacher, 1836   You have your season, and you have but your season; neither ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7040]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Charles Simeon, Pastor, Teacher, 1836   You have your season, and you have but your season; neither can you lie down in peace, until you have some persuasion that your work as well as your life is at an end.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7040</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There will be a lot of new choices for consumers and operators to make over the next decade. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42646]]></link><description><![CDATA[There will be a lot of new choices for consumers and operators to make over the next decade.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42646</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The jury, passing on the prisoner's life, may in the sworn twelve have a thief or two guiltier than him ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23584]]></link><description><![CDATA[The jury, passing on the prisoner's life, may in the sworn twelve have a thief or two guiltier than him they try]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23584</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Kings govern by popular assemblies only when they cannot do without them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23806]]></link><description><![CDATA[Kings govern by popular assemblies only when they cannot do without them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23806</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is a play.

He has enough light to light him on his way, but there are a great many gaps in his knowledge. When he says, "One day we shall understand", he is by no means always uttering a pious platitude. Quite frequently he is voicing a solid conviction, a genuine facet of hope. At present his vision is severely limited, and that is probably just as well, if his sanity is to be preserved. But when he is free of the limitations of temporal life, he has every hope of being able to know as surely as he is at present known.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ye living lamps, by whose dear light The nightingale does sit so late;  And studying all the summer night, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17580]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ye living lamps, by whose dear light The nightingale does sit so late;  And studying all the summer night,   Her matchless songs does meditate.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17580</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the truly faithful, no miracle is necessary.
