It becomes apparent, therefore, that the whole of Scripture, and hence every passage in it as well, far surpasses our understanding. It is good for us to be daily reminded of this fact.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8597</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Think'st thou it honourable for a noble man Still to remember wrongs? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51238]]></link><description><![CDATA[Think'st thou it honourable for a noble man Still to remember wrongs?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51238</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A lot of investors are still unsure which way the market will go and so are reluctant to jump in. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41926]]></link><description><![CDATA[A lot of investors are still unsure which way the market will go and so are reluctant to jump in.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41926</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God knows I loved my niece, And she is dead, slandered to death by villains,  That dare as well ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56552]]></link><description><![CDATA[God knows I loved my niece, And she is dead, slandered to death by villains,  That dare as well answer a man indeed   As I dare take a serpent by the tongue.    Boys, apes, braggarts, Jacks, milksops!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination.
