Religion is what we (or he himself at a later moment) call his activity from outside.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8527</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A live dog is better than a dead lion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50960]]></link><description><![CDATA[A live dog is better than a dead lion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50960</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are no better cosmetics than a severe temperance and purity, modesty and humility, a gracious temper and calmness of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10200]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are no better cosmetics than a severe temperance and purity, modesty and humility, a gracious temper and calmness of spirit; and there is no true beauty without the signatures of these graces in the very countenance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10200</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's hard to say what I want my legacy to be when I'm long gone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28161]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's hard to say what I want my legacy to be when I'm long gone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28161</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[While this is a good alternative, these bullets are not available on the market.
