What moral object was there, for which such a Messiah should come? What could he have been but a sort of virtuous Napoleon?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If the parks be "the lungs of London" we wonder what Greenwich Fair is--a periodical breaking out, we suppose--a sort ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25453]]></link><description><![CDATA[If the parks be "the lungs of London" we wonder what Greenwich Fair is--a periodical breaking out, we suppose--a sort of spring rash.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25453</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That stone, . . . Philosophers in vain so long have sought. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46493]]></link><description><![CDATA[That stone, . . . Philosophers in vain so long have sought.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46493</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The old Irish when immersing a babe at baptism left out the right arm so that it would remain pagan ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3602]]></link><description><![CDATA[The old Irish when immersing a babe at baptism left out the right arm so that it would remain pagan for good fighting]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conversation makes one what he is. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49181]]></link><description><![CDATA[Conversation makes one what he is.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49181</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are pleased to have received approval of the transaction in all six states served by PacifiCorp.
