There below him lay all things, good or bad, that can be brought from the four corners of the earth to instruct, please, thrill, enrich, elevate, cast down, nurture or kill. Thus the flavor of it came up to him and went into his blood.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We received a grant through the Discovery Project to visit the Portland Art Museum, the Oregon Historical Society, and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30505]]></link><description><![CDATA[We received a grant through the Discovery Project to visit the Portland Art Museum, the Oregon Historical Society, and the Oregon Zoo.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30505</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We try to take advantage of everything.
