Mother, wife, or sister, Woman is the caress of life, the soothing sweetness of affection shed over its toils, a reflection for the individual of the loving providence which watches over Humanity. In her there is treasure enough of consoling tenderness to allay every pain. Moreover for every one of us she is the initiator of the future. The mother's first kiss teaches the child love; the first holy kiss of the woman he loves teaches man hope and faith in life; and love and faith create a desire for perfection and the power of reaching towards it step by step; create the future, in short, of which the living symbol is the child, link between us and the generations to come. Through her the Family, with its divine mystery of reproduction, points to Eternity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63092</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From the suites of Davos to the streets of Seattle, there is a growing consensus that globalization must now be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17530]]></link><description><![CDATA[From the suites of Davos to the streets of Seattle, there is a growing consensus that globalization must now be reshaped to reflect values broader than simply the freedom of capital.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17530</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A medium Vodka dry Martini--with a slice of lemon peel.

People just taking the chemicals and diving in without having any kind of preparation about what they're about to experience tend to have no frame of reference, so they're missing everything flying by and all these new perspectives. It's just a waste. They reach a little bit of spiritual enlightenment, but they end up going, 'Well, now I need that drug to get back there again.' The trick is to use the drugs once to get there, and maybe spend the next ten years trying to get back there without the drug.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13025</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Your every voter, as surely as your chief magistrate, exercises a public trust. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60990]]></link><description><![CDATA[Your every voter, as surely as your chief magistrate, exercises a public trust.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60990</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The stronger always succeeds. [Lat., Plus potest qui plus valet.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57945]]></link><description><![CDATA[The stronger always succeeds. [Lat., Plus potest qui plus valet.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57945</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unemployment is capitalism's way of getting you to plant a garden. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5227]]></link><description><![CDATA[Unemployment is capitalism's way of getting you to plant a garden.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5227</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Anne & Joachim, parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary  God is none other than the Saviour of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7642]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Anne & Joachim, parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary  God is none other than the Saviour of our wretchedness.

He can have but little knowledge of his own heart who will deny this. On the other hand, who that is holding on in the ways of righteousness, does not daily ascribe his steadfastness to the influence of that grace which he receives from God; and look daily to God for more grace, in order that he may be "kept by his power through faith unto salvation (Zech. iv. 9)?" No man can in any measure resemble the scripture saints, unless he be of this disposition. Why then must these things be put in opposition to each other, so that every advocate for one of these points must of necessity controvert and explode the other? Only let any pious person... examine the language of his prayers after he has been devoutly pouring out his soul before God, and he will find his own words almost in perfect consonance with the foregoing statement.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6706</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3823]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3823</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In durance vile. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48262]]></link><description><![CDATA[In durance vile.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48262</guid></item></channel></rss>
