But our true god lies so deeply inside us that often we are not even consciously aware of its presence or of what it actually is.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6221</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Tigers have built a much stronger military machine in the four years of the ceasefire.

Were they awe-stricken by creation? They beheld it confessing Christ as Lord. Did their minds tend to regard men as gods? The uniqueness of the Savior's works marked Him, alone of men, as Son of God. Were they drawn to evil spirits? They saw them driven out by the Lord, and learned that the Word of God alone was God and that the evil spirits were not gods at all. Were they inclined to hero-worship and the cult of the dead? Then the fact that the Savior had risen from the dead showed them how false these other deities were, and that the Word of the Father is the one true Lord, the Lord even of death. For this reason was He both born and manifested as Man, for this He died and rose, in order that, eclipsing by His works all other human deeds, He might recall man from all the paths of error to know the Father. As He says Himself, "I came to seek and to save that which was lost.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It has been said, in regard to a judo expert's level of mental development, that "the arms are an extension ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23557]]></link><description><![CDATA[It has been said, in regard to a judo expert's level of mental development, that "the arms are an extension of the mind."]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Think, ye may buy the joys o'er dear, Remember Tam o'Shanter's mare. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48703]]></link><description><![CDATA[Think, ye may buy the joys o'er dear, Remember Tam o'Shanter's mare.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48703</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By gold all good faith has been banished; by gold our rights are abused; the law itself is influenced by ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4907]]></link><description><![CDATA[By gold all good faith has been banished; by gold our rights are abused; the law itself is influenced by gold, and soon there will be an end of every modest restraint. [Lat., Auro pulsa fides. auro venalia jura,  Aurum lex sequitur, mox sine lege pudor.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4907</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cunning is the art of concealing our own defects, and discovering other people's weaknesses. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10841]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cunning is the art of concealing our own defects, and discovering other people's weaknesses.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10841</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The play bill which is said to have announced the tragedy of Hamlet, the character of the Prince of Denmark ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/436]]></link><description><![CDATA[The play bill which is said to have announced the tragedy of Hamlet, the character of the Prince of Denmark being left out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/436</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We agreed in Cairo on a collective truce and the retaliation, therefore, should be collective, too, because this is an ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41288]]></link><description><![CDATA[We agreed in Cairo on a collective truce and the retaliation, therefore, should be collective, too, because this is an Israeli carnage, the result of which must be shared by all parties.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41288</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success is never certain.
