What here is only a tiny flame of secret self-reproach that flickers up occasionally and is quickly smothered, there becomes a scorching fire. What here is no more than a slight ticking sound in our conscience suddenly becomes the trumpet tone of judgment which can no longer be ignored. Lazarus is permitted to see what he believed, but the rich man is compelled to see what he did not believe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6840</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greater part of our happiness or misery depends on our dispositions and not our circumstances. -Martha Washington. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46070]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greater part of our happiness or misery depends on our dispositions and not our circumstances. -Martha Washington.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46070</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only for the phony is commercialism-the bending of creativity to common utility-a naughty word.
