O Conqueror renowned! O Source of peace ineffable,   In whom all joys are found:  When once you visit darkened hearts   Then truth begins to shine, Then earthly vanity departs,   Then kindles love divine. O Jesus, light of all below,   The fount of life and fire,  Surpassing all the joys we know,   All that we can desire: May ev'ry heart confess your name,   Forever you adore, And, seeking you, itself inflame   To seek you more and more! Oh, may our tongues forever bless,   May we love you alone  And ever in our lives express   The image of your own!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7967</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Temptation is an irresistible force at work on a moveable body. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58916]]></link><description><![CDATA[Temptation is an irresistible force at work on a moveable body.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[False friends are like our shadow, keeping close to us while we walk in the sunshine, but leaving us the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11540]]></link><description><![CDATA[False friends are like our shadow, keeping close to us while we walk in the sunshine, but leaving us the instant we cross into the shade.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11540</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One seeks to make the loved one entirely happy, or, if that cannot be, entirely wretched. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25977]]></link><description><![CDATA[One seeks to make the loved one entirely happy, or, if that cannot be, entirely wretched.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25977</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Punctuality is a virtue, if you don't mind being lonely ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52529]]></link><description><![CDATA[Punctuality is a virtue, if you don't mind being lonely]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52529</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We earned this tonight, not with great soccer, but with very hard work. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33644]]></link><description><![CDATA[We earned this tonight, not with great soccer, but with very hard work.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33644</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A young lady is a female child who has just done something dreadful. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23966]]></link><description><![CDATA[A young lady is a female child who has just done something dreadful.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23966</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But honest instinct comes a volunteer; Sure never to o'er-shoot, but just to hit,  While still too wide or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22829]]></link><description><![CDATA[But honest instinct comes a volunteer; Sure never to o'er-shoot, but just to hit,  While still too wide or short in human wit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22829</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You never will be the person you can be if pressure, tension and discipline are taken out of your life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44239]]></link><description><![CDATA[You never will be the person you can be if pressure, tension and discipline are taken out of your life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44239</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From wonder into wonder existence opens. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61954]]></link><description><![CDATA[From wonder into wonder existence opens.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61954</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We feel strongly that Regis has been a great neighbor for a very long time.
