A man can be a hero because he suffers and despairs; or because he thinks logically and analytically; or because he is "sensitive;" or because he is cruel. Wealth establishes a man as a hero, and so does poverty. Virtually any circumstance in a man's life will make him a hero to some group of people and has a mythic rendering in the culture -- in literature, art, theater, or the daily newspapers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My dear dear lord, The purest treasure mortal times afford  Is spotless reputation.
