His Mother followed in the crowd and violently beat her breast in sorrow, whereupon the young man said, I wish to say something to my Mother in her ear. She came close to him, and he quickly seized her ear with his teeth and bit it off. The Mother upbraided him as an unnatural child, whereon he replied, Ah! if you had beaten me when I first stole and brought to you that lesson-book, I should not have come to this, nor have been thus led to a disgraceful death.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A "No" uttered from deepest conviction is better and greater than a "Yes" merely uttered to please, or what is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5206]]></link><description><![CDATA[A "No" uttered from deepest conviction is better and greater than a "Yes" merely uttered to please, or what is worse, to avoid trouble.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those have most power to hurt us, that we love ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47912]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those have most power to hurt us, that we love]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47912</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A single conversation across the table with a wise person is worth a month's study of books ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10077]]></link><description><![CDATA[A single conversation across the table with a wise person is worth a month's study of books]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10077</guid></item></channel></rss>
