Not only must we meditate upon these things here -- for this short exhortation sufficeth not to eradicate the evil -- but at home let the husband be reminded of them by the wife, and the wife by the husband, and let an emulation obtain in families to the fulfilment of the divine law.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You are only young once, but you can stay immature indefinitely. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28049]]></link><description><![CDATA[You are only young once, but you can stay immature indefinitely.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28049</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So when a great man dies, For years beyond our ken,  The light he leaves behind him lies  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20865]]></link><description><![CDATA[So when a great man dies, For years beyond our ken,  The light he leaves behind him lies   Upon the paths of men.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20865</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't you realize that the sea is the home of water?
