This is a degradation of God and of ourselves, which has pauperized us in every way over the centuries. God has no need, and if the mission is God's, then we do not ask for help to give God a boost; therefore we do not appeal for funds. We allow people to take a share in God's work, and this is a very different thing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They never taste who always drink; They always talk who never think. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58620]]></link><description><![CDATA[They never taste who always drink; They always talk who never think.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58620</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fortune rarely accompanies anyone to the door. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16590]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fortune rarely accompanies anyone to the door.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The government is asleep -- there is a big administrative corruption everywhere in its institutions, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36676]]></link><description><![CDATA[The government is asleep -- there is a big administrative corruption everywhere in its institutions,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36676</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O how small a portion of earth will hold us when we are dead, who ambitiously seek after the whole ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18224]]></link><description><![CDATA[O how small a portion of earth will hold us when we are dead, who ambitiously seek after the whole world while we are living.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18224</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conceit is bragging about yourself.

Perceiving their simplicity, he cast down a huge log into the lake. The Frogs were terrified at the splash occasioned by its fall and hid themselves in the depths of the pool. But as soon as they realized that the huge log was motionless, they swam again to the top of the water, dismissed their fears, climbed up, and began squatting on it in contempt. After some time they began to think themselves ill-treated in the appointment of so inert a Ruler, and sent a second deputation to Jupiter to pray that he would set over them another sovereign. He then gave them an Eel to govern them. When the Frogs discovered his easy good nature, they sent yet a third time to Jupiter to beg him to choose for them still another King. Jupiter, displeased with all their complaints, sent a Heron, who preyed upon the Frogs day by day till there were none left to croak upon the lake.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All crime is a kind of disease and should be treated as such. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10689]]></link><description><![CDATA[All crime is a kind of disease and should be treated as such.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10689</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He knows little who tells his wife all he knows. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61569]]></link><description><![CDATA[He knows little who tells his wife all he knows.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In terms of production output costs, Thailand is approximately 20 percent higher and the Philippines is approximately 30 percent higher ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42576]]></link><description><![CDATA[In terms of production output costs, Thailand is approximately 20 percent higher and the Philippines is approximately 30 percent higher than China.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ever consider what pets must think of us?
