Truth seen as truth carries with it condemnation to all who refuse to welcome it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thus the metric system did not really catch on in the States, unless you count the increasing popularity of the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47706]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thus the metric system did not really catch on in the States, unless you count the increasing popularity of the nine-millimeter bullet.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47706</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A flatterers throat is an open Sepulcher. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49018]]></link><description><![CDATA[A flatterers throat is an open Sepulcher.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49018</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One should respect public opinion in so far as is necessary to avoid starvation and to keep out of prison, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44996]]></link><description><![CDATA[One should respect public opinion in so far as is necessary to avoid starvation and to keep out of prison, but anything that goes beyond this is voluntary submission to an unnecessary tyranny]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The TV shows and magazines both confirm and propel the trend.

When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us; we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us; we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reason is the test of ridicule, not ridicule the test of truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53125]]></link><description><![CDATA[Reason is the test of ridicule, not ridicule the test of truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The superior man is distressed by the limitations of his ability; he is not distressed by the fact that men ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58193]]></link><description><![CDATA[The superior man is distressed by the limitations of his ability; he is not distressed by the fact that men do not recognize the ability that he has.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no conversation more boring than the one where everybody agrees. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1940]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no conversation more boring than the one where everybody agrees.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1940</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Begging a courtesy is selling liberty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50970]]></link><description><![CDATA[Begging a courtesy is selling liberty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50970</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no forgiveness in nature. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63335]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no forgiveness in nature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63335</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think God is a giant vibrator in the sky. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33195]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think God is a giant vibrator in the sky.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33195</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From the crown of his head to the sole of his foot, he is all mirth. -Much Ado about Nothing. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55432]]></link><description><![CDATA[From the crown of his head to the sole of his foot, he is all mirth. -Much Ado about Nothing.
