He then addressed them in these words: My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this faggot, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies; but if you are divided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Society is a madhouse whose wardens are the officials and the police. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57046]]></link><description><![CDATA[Society is a madhouse whose wardens are the officials and the police.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57046</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In honest plainness thou hast heard me say My daughter is not for thee; and now, in madness,  Being ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22932]]></link><description><![CDATA[In honest plainness thou hast heard me say My daughter is not for thee; and now, in madness,  Being full of supper and distemp'ring draughts,   Upon malicious knavery does thou come    To start my quiet.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22932</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59828]]></link><description><![CDATA[The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Habit is the denial of creativity and the negation of freedom; a self-imposed straitjacket of which the wearer is unaware. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47212]]></link><description><![CDATA[Habit is the denial of creativity and the negation of freedom; a self-imposed straitjacket of which the wearer is unaware.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47212</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be sure you are right, then go ahead. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54242]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be sure you are right, then go ahead.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54242</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be careful what you pretend to be because you are what you pretend to be. -Kurt Vonnegut. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55071]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be careful what you pretend to be because you are what you pretend to be. -Kurt Vonnegut.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55071</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cherish your visions and your dreams, as they are the children of your soul, the blueprints of your ultimate achievements. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/375]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cherish your visions and your dreams, as they are the children of your soul, the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/375</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Work your way up or rust your way out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22206]]></link><description><![CDATA[Work your way up or rust your way out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This speaks well of our kids to play hard and make their way to the finals, ...
