For even if it should be from God, our Lord gives this to such men in order to attract and charm them, and also to detach them from others. But if these same people later grow in love, they may not have so many feelings, and then it will become clear that they have love, if they remain wholly faithful to God without any such support.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8378</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out till sundown, for going out, I found, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43950]]></link><description><![CDATA[I only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out till sundown, for going out, I found, was really going in.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43950</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I not only use all the brains I have, but all that I can borrow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27527]]></link><description><![CDATA[I not only use all the brains I have, but all that I can borrow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27527</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lovers have a right to betray you... friends don't. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64399]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lovers have a right to betray you... friends don't.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ideals which have lighted my way, and time after time have given me new courage to face life cheerfully ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20257]]></link><description><![CDATA[The ideals which have lighted my way, and time after time have given me new courage to face life cheerfully have been kindness, beauty, and truth]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Contentions fierce, Ardent, and dire, spring from no petty cause. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9971]]></link><description><![CDATA[Contentions fierce, Ardent, and dire, spring from no petty cause.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9971</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Belshazzar had a letter,-- He never had but one;  Belshazzar's correspondence   Concluded and begun    ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47810]]></link><description><![CDATA[Belshazzar had a letter,-- He never had but one;  Belshazzar's correspondence   Concluded and begun    In that immortal copy     The conscience of us all      Can read without its glasses       On revelation's wall.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perhaps the single most important element in mastering the techniques and tactics of racing is experience.
