But the only time that is surely yours is the present, hence this is the time to speak the word of appreciation and sympathy, to do the generous deed, to forgive the fault of a thoughtless friend, to sacrifice self a little more for others. Today is the day in which to express your noblest qualities of mind and heart, to do at least one worthy thing which you have long postponed, and to use your God-given abilities for the enrichment of someone less fortunate. Today you can make your life - significant and worthwhile. The present is yours to do with as you will. -Grenville Kleiser.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44704</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most certain test by which we judge whether a country is really free is the amount of security enjoyed ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10232]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most certain test by which we judge whether a country is really free is the amount of security enjoyed by minorities.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10232</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Accuracy of language is one of the bulwarks of truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24068]]></link><description><![CDATA[Accuracy of language is one of the bulwarks of truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24068</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I just wake up and say, "You're a bum, go do something worthwhile today.". ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21626]]></link><description><![CDATA[I just wake up and say, "You're a bum, go do something worthwhile today.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21626</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who has injured thee was either stronger or weaker.
