The persistent appeal to covetousness is fundamentally opposed to the unselfishness which was taught by Jesus Christ and by the New Testament as a whole. The attempt (which is inseparable from gambling) to make a profit out of the inevitable loss and possible suffering of others is the antithesis of that love of one's neighbour on which our Lord insisted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7115</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love comes to those who still hope even though they've beendisappointed, to those who still believe even though they've beenbetrayed, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53588]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love comes to those who still hope even though they've beendisappointed, to those who still believe even though they've beenbetrayed, to those for whom love still heals, even though they'vebeenhurt before.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Literature is an occupation in which you have to keep proving your talent to people who have none. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44855]]></link><description><![CDATA[Literature is an occupation in which you have to keep proving your talent to people who have none.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44855</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64309]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What power has love but forgiveness? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8359]]></link><description><![CDATA[What power has love but forgiveness?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8359</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have not the time to take our time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64203]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have not the time to take our time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64203</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The two most abundant things in the universe are Hydrogen and stupidity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46307]]></link><description><![CDATA[The two most abundant things in the universe are Hydrogen and stupidity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46307</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man does not live by soap alone; and hygiene, or even health, is not much good unless you can take ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20205]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man does not live by soap alone; and hygiene, or even health, is not much good unless you can take a healthy view of it -- or, better still, feel a healthy indifference to it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I need no dictionary of quotations to remind me that the eyes are the windows of the soul ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52851]]></link><description><![CDATA[I need no dictionary of quotations to remind me that the eyes are the windows of the soul]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52851</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He did the best he could.
