He immediately let go of his own, and fiercely attacked the other Dog to get his larger piece from him.

Men in my platoon who had served time in Vietnam told me many stories—but none more chilling than the one from two helicopter pilots. They told me how they would shoot the friendlies on their way back from reconnaissance missions just so they could empty their ammunition before returning to base. The friendlies were South Vietnamese women and children, helpless victims in a war they did not understand. But to the American pilots, they were simply dots on the ground.Whitehead is a political conservative.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What's in a name? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51472]]></link><description><![CDATA[What's in a name?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51472</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The violets were past their prime, Yet their departing breath  Was sweeter, in the blast of death,   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60716]]></link><description><![CDATA[The violets were past their prime, Yet their departing breath  Was sweeter, in the blast of death,   Than all the lavish fragrance of the time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A spring of love gushed from my heart, And I bless'd them unaware. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4314]]></link><description><![CDATA[A spring of love gushed from my heart, And I bless'd them unaware.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4314</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[OUR SUNDAY-SCHOOL TEACHERS  Often, though not always, they work in inadequate buildings, with limited budgets, with insufficient backing from ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6541]]></link><description><![CDATA[OUR SUNDAY-SCHOOL TEACHERS  Often, though not always, they work in inadequate buildings, with limited budgets, with insufficient backing from church officers, with indifferent support from parents, and at times even under a minister who cares for none of these things. Usually the workers themselves have had insufficient training for the job they are asked to perform. And always they work in a secularized culture, in the midst of spiritual illiteracy, where the most commonplace terms in the Bible and the most elemental ideas concerning the Kingdom of God sound strange even to otherwise well-educated adults.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6541</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As far as track meets, it's by far the best meet in the state. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40233]]></link><description><![CDATA[As far as track meets, it's by far the best meet in the state.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40233</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We work off of a back log, ...

Eccl. 12:6. When he understood it, he called for his friends, and told them of it. Then said he, I am going to my Father's; and though with great difficulty I have got hither, yet now I do not repent me of all the trouble I have been at to arrive where I am. My sword I give to him that shall succeed me in my pilgrimage, and my courage and skill to him that can get it. My marks and scars I carry with me, to be a witness for me that I have fought His battles who will now be my rewarder. When the day that he must go hence was come, many accompanied him to the river-side, into which as he went, he said, "Death, where is thy sting?" And as he went down deeper, he said, "Grave, where is thy victory?" 1 Cor. 15:55. So he passed over, and all the trumpets sounded for him on the other side.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7968</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The merit of originality is not novelty, it is sincerity.

But this life is not a season to be always taking wages in; our work is not yet done; we are not always to abide in this mount; we must down again into the battle -- fight again, cry again, complain again. Shall the soul be thought now to have lost its assurance? Not at all. It had before assurance with joy, triumph, and exultation; it hath it now, or may have, with wrestling, cries, tears, and supplications. And a man's assurance may be as good, as true, when he lies on the earth with a sense of sin, as when he is carried up to the third heaven with a sense of love and foretaste of glory.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7106</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Choose only one master - Nature. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43771]]></link><description><![CDATA[Choose only one master - Nature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43771</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The swan on still St. Mary's lake Float double, swan and shadow! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58467]]></link><description><![CDATA[The swan on still St. Mary's lake Float double, swan and shadow!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58467</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Spring bursts to-day, For Christ is risen and all the earth's at play. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13150]]></link><description><![CDATA[Spring bursts to-day, For Christ is risen and all the earth's at play.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13150</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's clear that we've seen some pass-through of raw materials costs to producer prices, but retail inflation is still restrained. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36354]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's clear that we've seen some pass-through of raw materials costs to producer prices, but retail inflation is still restrained.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why will no man confess his faults?
