And one of the games to which it is most attached is called, ''Keep tomorrow dark,'' and which is also named (by the rustics in Shropshire, I have no doubt) ''Cheat the Prophet.'' The players listen very carefully and respectfully to all that the clever men have to say about what is to happen in the next generation. The players then wait until all the clever men are dead, and bury them nicely. Then they go and do something else. That is all. For a race of simple tastes, however, it is great fun.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56940</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Estate agents.

You can't live with them, you can't live with them. The first sign of these nasty purulent sores appeared round about 1894. With their jangling keys, nasty suits, revolting beards, moustaches and tinted spectacles, estate agents roam the land causing perturbation and despair. If you try and kill them, you're put in prison: if you try and talk to them, you vomit. There's only one thing worse than an estate agent but at least that can be safely lanced, drained and surgically dressed. Estate agents. Love them or loathe them, you'd be mad not to loathe them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19642</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mere attempt to examine my own confusion would consume volumes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36987]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mere attempt to examine my own confusion would consume volumes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36987</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I know myself now, and I feel within me A peace above all earthly dignities,  A still and quiet ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51361]]></link><description><![CDATA[I know myself now, and I feel within me A peace above all earthly dignities,  A still and quiet conscience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51361</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We got to go to Lucas Ranch and, at that time, my brother was still living in a condo about ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31024]]></link><description><![CDATA[We got to go to Lucas Ranch and, at that time, my brother was still living in a condo about a mile from Robin Williams, and so I made all of the other comics jealous because I got to get a ride home with him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31024</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An original writer is not one who imitates nobody, but one whom nobody can imitate. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10577]]></link><description><![CDATA[An original writer is not one who imitates nobody, but one whom nobody can imitate.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10577</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One seeks to make the loved one entirely happy, or, if that cannot be, entirely wretched. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25977]]></link><description><![CDATA[One seeks to make the loved one entirely happy, or, if that cannot be, entirely wretched.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25977</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It would be unconscionable for the Brattleboro Select Board to approve the evacuation plan without including these improvements. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34203]]></link><description><![CDATA[It would be unconscionable for the Brattleboro Select Board to approve the evacuation plan without including these improvements.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34203</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whoever turns away from truth perishes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36720]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whoever turns away from truth perishes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36720</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Falsehood is cowardice, the truth courage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15066]]></link><description><![CDATA[Falsehood is cowardice, the truth courage.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15066</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Musick helps not the tooth-ach. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49637]]></link><description><![CDATA[Musick helps not the tooth-ach.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49637</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best thing for being sad, replied Merlyn, beginning to puff and blow, is to learn something.

That is the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then — to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting."]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some minds are like concrete: thoroughly mixed up and permanently set. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22892]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some minds are like concrete: thoroughly mixed up and permanently set.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22892</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I told her it was the best she'd ever played: 1 for 1. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37390]]></link><description><![CDATA[I told her it was the best she'd ever played: 1 for 1.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37390</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We ran out of gas yesterday afternoon sometime, ...
