It won't. It will be exercised by men who will be men first and rulers next and scientists and saints long after.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47650</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The prerequisite of originality is the art of forgetting, at the proper moment, what we know. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52027]]></link><description><![CDATA[The prerequisite of originality is the art of forgetting, at the proper moment, what we know.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52027</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43631]]></link><description><![CDATA[But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43631</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marriage is like a cage; one sees the birds outside desperate to get in, and those inside desperate to get ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27273]]></link><description><![CDATA[Marriage is like a cage; one sees the birds outside desperate to get in, and those inside desperate to get out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27273</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Oxen and the Axle-TreesA heavy wagon was being dragged along a country lane by a team of Oxen.
