The third-rate little town in the hills, with its limited social contacts and monotonous manual work, reproves us when we begin to fuss about our opportunities and our score. And this quality of quietness, ordinariness, simplicity, with which the saving action of God enters history, endures from the beginning to the end.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7668</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A myth is the name of a terrible lie told by a smelly little brown person to a man in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33127]]></link><description><![CDATA[A myth is the name of a terrible lie told by a smelly little brown person to a man in a white suit with a pair of binoculars.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33127</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think most of the people involved in any art always secretly wonder whether they are really there because they're ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44995]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think most of the people involved in any art always secretly wonder whether they are really there because they're good or there because they're lucky.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44995</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To affirm is to make firm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21474]]></link><description><![CDATA[To affirm is to make firm.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21474</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Make me over, Mother April, When the sap begins to stir!  When thy flowery hand delivers   All ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2984]]></link><description><![CDATA[Make me over, Mother April, When the sap begins to stir!  When thy flowery hand delivers   All the mountain-prisoned rivers,    And thy great heart beats and quivers,     To revive the days that were.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2984</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is so oppressive as a secret: women find it difficult to keep one long; and I know a goodly ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54982]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is so oppressive as a secret: women find it difficult to keep one long; and I know a goodly number of men who are women in this regard. [Fr., Rien ne pese tant qu'un secret:  Le porter loin est difficile aux dames;   Et je sais meme sur ce fait    Bon nombre d'hommes que sont femmes.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A poet is a man who manages, in a lifetime of standing out in thunderstorms, to be struck by lightning ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46826]]></link><description><![CDATA[A poet is a man who manages, in a lifetime of standing out in thunderstorms, to be struck by lightning five or six times.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46826</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An old cat will not learn how to dance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11007]]></link><description><![CDATA[An old cat will not learn how to dance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11007</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never idealize others.
