What dreadful noise of waters in mine ears! What ugly sights of death within mine eyes! Methought I saw a thousand fearful wrecks, Ten thousand men that fishes gnawed upon, Wedges of gold, great anchors, heaps of pearl, Inestimable stones, unvalued jewels, All scattered in the bottom of the sea: Some lay in dead men's skulls; and in those holes Where eyes did once inhabit, there were crept, As 't were in scorn of eyes, reflecting gems. -King Richard III. Act i. Sc. 4.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56004</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where thou art, that is home. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19633]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where thou art, that is home.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19633</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have suffered too much in this world not to hope for another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58221]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have suffered too much in this world not to hope for another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58221</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be humble to superiors is duty, to equals courtesy, to inferiors nobleness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10434]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be humble to superiors is duty, to equals courtesy, to inferiors nobleness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To know someone here or there with whom you can feel there is understanding in spite of distances or thoughts ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60057]]></link><description><![CDATA[To know someone here or there with whom you can feel there is understanding in spite of distances or thoughts expressed.

Whereas Jesus placed the penitent heart and the saving will of God higher than the pride of the godly and the letter of the Torah, so Paul preached faith in Christ as the only way to salvation and rejected striving after righteousness through the works of the Law. Above all, Jesus knew himself to be the Messiah and he acted in messianic authority; hence the risen and glorified Jesus was acknowledged as the king of the last days. It is still faith, not sight, that is demanded from men.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6234</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've known for a very long time that I was being downloaded more than Cindy Margolis.
