Lenin, Stalin, and Hitler were contemptuous of money. The passage from the nineteenth to the twentieth century has been a passage from considerations of money to considerations of power. How naive the cliche that money is the root of evil!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you're not just a little bit nervous before a match, you probably don't have the expectations of yourself that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44391]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you're not just a little bit nervous before a match, you probably don't have the expectations of yourself that you should have.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's just devastating to hear, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34345]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's just devastating to hear,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34345</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of the Conversion of Paul  If I say to you that no one has time to finish, that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8495]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of the Conversion of Paul  If I say to you that no one has time to finish, that the longest human life leaves a man, in any branch of learning, a beginner, I shall seem to you to be saying something quite academic and theoretical. You would be surprised if you knew how soon one begins to feel the shortness of the tether: of how many things, even in middle life, we have to say, "No time for that", "Too late now" and "Not for me". But Nature herself forbids you [young people] to share that experience. A more Christian attitude, which can be attained at any age, is that of leaving futurity in God's hands. We may as well, for God will certainly retain it whether we leave it to Him or not.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Complain to one who can help you ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9250]]></link><description><![CDATA[Complain to one who can help you]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9250</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The burning of an author's books, imprisonment for opinion's sake, has always been the tribute that an ignorant age pays ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39158]]></link><description><![CDATA[The burning of an author's books, imprisonment for opinion's sake, has always been the tribute that an ignorant age pays to the genius of its time]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39158</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Such crimes has superstition caused. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50600]]></link><description><![CDATA[Such crimes has superstition caused.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trouble is, kids feel they have to shock their elders and each generation grows up into something harder to shock. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62594]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trouble is, kids feel they have to shock their elders and each generation grows up into something harder to shock.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Growing up in Brooklyn in the '40s and following the war in the papers and on the radio every day, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33132]]></link><description><![CDATA[Growing up in Brooklyn in the '40s and following the war in the papers and on the radio every day, the world looked very different to us then.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33132</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here's to the maiden of bashful fifteen; Here's to the widow of fifty;  Here's to the flaunting, extravagant quean; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59415]]></link><description><![CDATA[Here's to the maiden of bashful fifteen; Here's to the widow of fifty;  Here's to the flaunting, extravagant quean;   And here's to the housewife that's thrifty.    (Chorus:) Let the toast pass,--     Drink to the lass,      I'll warrant she'll prove an excuse for the glass.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59415</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that is jealous is not in love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66650]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that is jealous is not in love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66650</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Philip & James, Apostles  Here is opened to us the true reason of the whole process of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6965]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Philip & James, Apostles  Here is opened to us the true reason of the whole process of our Saviour's incarnation, passion, death, resurrection, and ascension into Heaven. It was because fallen man was to go through all these stages as necessary parts of his return to God; and therefore, if man was to go out of his fallen state there must be a son of this fallen man, who, as a head and fountain of the whole race, could do all this -- could go back through all these gates and so make it possible for all the individuals of human nature, as being born of Him, to inherit His conquering nature and follow Him through all these passages to eternal life. And thus we see, in the strongest and clearest light, both why and how the holy Jesus is become our great Redeemer.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6965</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Listen, my friend, there are two races of beings.
