The modern tailors dress the emperor in garbage.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The liar's punishment is not in the least that he is not believed, but that he cannot believe anyone else. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26148]]></link><description><![CDATA[The liar's punishment is not in the least that he is not believed, but that he cannot believe anyone else.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26148</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that can have patience can have what he will. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45751]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that can have patience can have what he will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Friendship should be more than biting time can sever. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16884]]></link><description><![CDATA[Friendship should be more than biting time can sever.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16884</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have all the respect in the world for Franklin, they are very tough to beat at home and they ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34669]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have all the respect in the world for Franklin, they are very tough to beat at home and they always play us hard.
