Alas! what comfort can we give to men in such a case? We are loth to drive them to despair; and yet we must not destroy them by presumption; pity and good nature do strongly tempt us to make the best of their case and to give them all the little hopes which with any kind of reason we can --and God knows it is but very little that we can give to such persons upon good ground, for it all depends upon the degree and sincerity of their repentance, which God only knows, and we can but guess at.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You know that because he was on the board so long and nobody challenged him. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31862]]></link><description><![CDATA[You know that because he was on the board so long and nobody challenged him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31862</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She waits for me, my lady Earth, Smiles and waits and sighs;  I'll say her nay, and hide away, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52932]]></link><description><![CDATA[She waits for me, my lady Earth, Smiles and waits and sighs;  I'll say her nay, and hide away,   Then take her by surprise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52932</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Health-care costs have been their No. 1 concern for 20 years. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29057]]></link><description><![CDATA[Health-care costs have been their No. 1 concern for 20 years.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29057</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Experience is not what happens to you; it is what you do with what happens to you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14727]]></link><description><![CDATA[Experience is not what happens to you; it is what you do with what happens to you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14727</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have short-term memory loss, though I like to think of it as Presidential eligibility. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26960]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have short-term memory loss, though I like to think of it as Presidential eligibility.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26960</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Clean hands are better than full ones in the sight of God. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51588]]></link><description><![CDATA[Clean hands are better than full ones in the sight of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His conversation does not show the minute hand; but he strikes the hour very correctly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10098]]></link><description><![CDATA[His conversation does not show the minute hand; but he strikes the hour very correctly.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10098</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Soviet Union foreign policy is a puzzle inside a riddle wrapped in an enigma, and the key is Russian nationalism. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54578]]></link><description><![CDATA[Soviet Union foreign policy is a puzzle inside a riddle wrapped in an enigma, and the key is Russian nationalism.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54578</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't know any other way to lead but by example. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16403]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't know any other way to lead but by example.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16403</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is this difference between happiness and wisdom, that he that thinks himself the happiest man, really is so; but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18687]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is this difference between happiness and wisdom, that he that thinks himself the happiest man, really is so; but he who thinks himself the wisest, is generally the greatest fool.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18687</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's a serial entrepreneur.
