And that, queerly enough as you might think, the man was not discomfited but heartened. Here at last, he felt, is one who understands and knows the facts. And since His desperate diagnosis is so accurate, may not His optimism also justify itself even in me. Well does He know what is in human nature, and yet, knowing the worst, He still has confident hope.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness will never come to those who fail to appreciate what they already have. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18708]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happiness will never come to those who fail to appreciate what they already have.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18708</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Maintain your post: That's all the fame you need; For 'tis impossible you should proceed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13049]]></link><description><![CDATA[Maintain your post: That's all the fame you need; For 'tis impossible you should proceed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13049</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every man makes a god of his own desire. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51792]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every man makes a god of his own desire.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51792</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In silence, . . . Steals on soft-handed Charity,  Tempering her gifts, that seem so free,   By ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5702]]></link><description><![CDATA[In silence, . . . Steals on soft-handed Charity,  Tempering her gifts, that seem so free,   By time and place,    Till not a woe the bleak world see,     But finds her grace.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5702</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Using the Internet, a sexual predator can be in any parent's living room without them knowing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40491]]></link><description><![CDATA[Using the Internet, a sexual predator can be in any parent's living room without them knowing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40491</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In order to live free and happily, you must sacrifice boredom.

It is not its task to tell people what ends they should aim at. It is a science of the means to be applied for attainment of ends chosen, not, to be sure, a science of the choosing of ends. Ultimate decisions, the valuations and the choosing of ends, are beyond the scope of any science. Science never tells a man how he should act; it merely shows how a man must act if he wants to attain definite ends.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15728</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world began without man, and it will complete itself without him. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27778]]></link><description><![CDATA[The world began without man, and it will complete itself without him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27778</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All men who have achieved great things have been great dreamers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62987]]></link><description><![CDATA[All men who have achieved great things have been great dreamers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62987</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Columba, Abbot of Iona, Missionary, 597 Commemoration of Ephrem of Syria, Deacon, Hymnographer, Teacher, 373  The Servant ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8253]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Columba, Abbot of Iona, Missionary, 597 Commemoration of Ephrem of Syria, Deacon, Hymnographer, Teacher, 373  The Servant Messiah carries out his ministry in the lives of his ministers.
