It may also, though perhaps our imaginations are so mutilated now that we are incapable even of the ambition, introduce a new theme, one as great and as rich as those others --should we call it "joy"?.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The black family survived centuries of slavery and generations of Jim Crow, but it has disintegrated in the wake of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66526]]></link><description><![CDATA[The black family survived centuries of slavery and generations of Jim Crow, but it has disintegrated in the wake of the liberals' expansion of the welfare state.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66526</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Advertising may be described as the science of arresting human intelligence long enough to get money from it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/744]]></link><description><![CDATA[Advertising may be described as the science of arresting human intelligence long enough to get money from it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/744</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the want of a nail the shoe was lost, For the want of a shoe the horse was lost, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59706]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the want of a nail the shoe was lost, For the want of a shoe the horse was lost, For the want of a horse the rider was lost, For the want of a rider the battle was lost, For the want of a battle the kingdom was lost, And all for the want of a horse-shoe nail.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59706</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They attack the one man with their hate and their shower of weapons.
