And every human heart that breaks,  In prison-cell or yard, Is as that broken box that gave  Its treasure to the Lord, And filled the unclean leper's house  With the scent of costliest nard. Ah! happy they whose hearts can break  And peace of pardon win! How else may man make straight his plan  And cleanse his soul from sin? How else but through a broken heart  May Lord Christ enter in?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit upon his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2546]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit upon his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2546</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Money, the root of all evil...but the cure for all sadness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15829]]></link><description><![CDATA[Money, the root of all evil...but the cure for all sadness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15829</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prosperity belongs to those who learn new things the fastest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22423]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prosperity belongs to those who learn new things the fastest.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22423</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it away from you. -B.B.
