The plain truth is that such a one should very seriously examine himself, if he finds what he regards as his Christian experience separating him from his fellow-men, or his fellow-Christians.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a cunning which we in England call the turning of the cat in the pan. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11516]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a cunning which we in England call the turning of the cat in the pan.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11516</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reform is alive and well within Islam, but it will only happen by those from within Islam and not those ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36649]]></link><description><![CDATA[Reform is alive and well within Islam, but it will only happen by those from within Islam and not those who hate Islam.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36649</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gold is a vain and foolish fancy. [Fr., L'or est une chimere.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17782]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gold is a vain and foolish fancy. [Fr., L'or est une chimere.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17782</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vigny, more secretAs if in his tower of ivory, retired before noon."N.B.: Vigny refers to Comte de Vigny, who locked ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25383]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vigny, more secretAs if in his tower of ivory, retired before noon."N.B.: Vigny refers to Comte de Vigny, who locked himself in an ivory tower to work without the influences of man and desire. - Pensees d'Aout.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25383</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A lawyer's primer: If you don't have the law, you argue the facts; if you don't have the facts, you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9902]]></link><description><![CDATA[A lawyer's primer: If you don't have the law, you argue the facts; if you don't have the facts, you argue the law; if you have neither the facts nor the law, then you argue the Constitution]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9902</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's the first time we've seen this many houses in the million-dollar range on the market. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31231]]></link><description><![CDATA[That's the first time we've seen this many houses in the million-dollar range on the market.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31231</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Justice is the crowning glory of the virtues. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23613]]></link><description><![CDATA[Justice is the crowning glory of the virtues.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23613</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So the struck eagle, stretched upon the plain, No more through rolling clouds to soar again,  Viewed his own ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13093]]></link><description><![CDATA[So the struck eagle, stretched upon the plain, No more through rolling clouds to soar again,  Viewed his own feather on the fatal dart,   And wing'd the shaft that quivered in his heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13093</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Television -- a medium.
