We do not get the soul in different ways, under different laws, from those in which we get the body and the mind. If a man does not exercise his arm, he develops no biceps muscles and if a man does not exercise his soul, he acquires no muscle in his soul, no strength of character, no vigour of moral fibre, nor beauty of spiritual growth. Love is not a thing of enthusiastic emotion. It is a rich, strong, manly, vigorous expression of the whole round Christian character -- the Christ-like nature in its fullest development. And the constituents of this great character are only to be built up by ceaseless practice.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7144</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Books are humanity in print. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4503]]></link><description><![CDATA[Books are humanity in print.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4503</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bourgeois prefers comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to the deathly inner consuming fire ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44564]]></link><description><![CDATA[The bourgeois prefers comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to the deathly inner consuming fire]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sounder your argument, the more satisfaction you get out of it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3061]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sounder your argument, the more satisfaction you get out of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3061</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In great pedigrees there are Governours and Chandlers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49541]]></link><description><![CDATA[In great pedigrees there are Governours and Chandlers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49541</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have had my labor for my travail; ill-thought-on of her, and ill-thought-on of you; gone between and between, but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62145]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have had my labor for my travail; ill-thought-on of her, and ill-thought-on of you; gone between and between, but small thanks for my labor.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62145</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The kind of man who wants the government to adopt and enforce his ideas is always the kind of man ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47508]]></link><description><![CDATA[The kind of man who wants the government to adopt and enforce his ideas is always the kind of man whose ideas are idiotic.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trust not those cunning waters of his eyes, For villany is not without such rheum. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51350]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trust not those cunning waters of his eyes, For villany is not without such rheum.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51350</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Her rarely striking out was not genetics.

From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,  Much pleasure, then from thee much more, must flow,  And soonest our best men with thee do go,  Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery. Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men, And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell,  And poppy, or charms, can make us sleep as well,  And better than thy stroke. Why swell'st thou then? One short sleep past, we wake eternally,  And Death shall be no more: Death, thou shalt die.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8096</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's the way I play.
