My life is like a faded leaf, My harvest dwindled to a husk: Truly my life is void and brief And tedious in the barren dusk; My life is like a frozen thing, No bud nor greenness can I see: Yet rise it shall--the sap of spring; O Jesus, rise in me. My life is like a broken bowl, A broken bowl that cannot hold One drop of water for my soul Or cordial in the searching cold; Cast in the fire the perished thing; Melt and remould it, till it be A royal cup for Him, my King: O Jesus, drink of me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7078</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Under the most rigorously controlled conditions of pressure, temperature, humidity, and other variables, the organism will do as it damn ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28067]]></link><description><![CDATA[Under the most rigorously controlled conditions of pressure, temperature, humidity, and other variables, the organism will do as it damn well pleases.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28067</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Destiny is no matter of chance.
