There has been a prejudice against IP therapy in ovarian cancer because it's an old idea, it requires skill and experience for the surgery and for the chemotherapy, and it's more complicated than IV chemotherapy. But now we have firm data showing that we should use a combination of IP and IV chemotherapy in most women with advanced ovarian cancer who have had successful surgery to remove the bulk of their tumor.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33368</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65209]]></link><description><![CDATA[Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For florid prose, nor honied lies of rhyme, Can blazon evil deeds, or consecrate a crime. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46746]]></link><description><![CDATA[For florid prose, nor honied lies of rhyme, Can blazon evil deeds, or consecrate a crime.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46746</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good taste is the first refuge of the non-creative.

We are speaking of the proper relationship to the living God who exists. In order to understand the problems of our generation, we should be very alive to this distinction. Semantics (linguistic analysis) makes up the heart of modern philosophical study in the Anglo-Saxon world. Though the Christian cannot accept this study as a total philosophy, there is no reason why he should not be glad for the concept that words need to be defined before they can be used in communication. As Christians, we must understand that there is no word so meaningless as the word "god" until it is defined. No word has been used to reach absolutely opposite concepts as much as the word "god". Consequently, let us not be confused. There is much "spirituality" about us today that would relate itself to the word god or to the idea god; but this is not what we are talking about. Biblical truth and spirituality is not a relationship to the word god, or to the idea god. It is a relationship to the one who is there, which is an entirely different concept.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have steadily endeavored to keep my mind free so as to give up any hypothesis, however much beloved (and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57091]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have steadily endeavored to keep my mind free so as to give up any hypothesis, however much beloved (and I cannot resist forming one on every subject), as soon as the facts are shown to be opposed to it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57091</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This school will embrace him.
