If his atlas tells him the world is flat he will not sail near what he believes to be the edge of our planet for fear of falling off. If his maps include a fountain of eternal youth, a Ponce de Leon will go off in quest of it. If someone digs up yellow dirt that looks like gold, he will for a time act exactly as if he has found gold. The way in which the world is imagined determines at any particular moment what men will do. It does not determine what they will achieve. It determines their effort, their feelings, their hopes, not their accomplishments and results.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51995</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The cat of the slums and alleys, starved, outcast, harried,... still displays the self- reliant watchfulness which man has never ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45324]]></link><description><![CDATA[The cat of the slums and alleys, starved, outcast, harried,... still displays the self- reliant watchfulness which man has never taught it to lay aside.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Admit your errors before someone else exaggerates them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14178]]></link><description><![CDATA[Admit your errors before someone else exaggerates them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14178</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prolifers support warwaging candidateswhose bomber planes become partial birth abortionists. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5967]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prolifers support warwaging candidateswhose bomber planes become partial birth abortionists.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5967</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Look at situations from all angles, and you will become more open. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65244]]></link><description><![CDATA[Look at situations from all angles, and you will become more open.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65244</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People's attitudes about sex aren't healthy anywhere, except maybe in those tribes where they go around naked. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29693]]></link><description><![CDATA[People's attitudes about sex aren't healthy anywhere, except maybe in those tribes where they go around naked.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29693</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man so various, that he seem'd to be Not one, but all mankind's epitome;  Stiff in opinions, always ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48953]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man so various, that he seem'd to be Not one, but all mankind's epitome;  Stiff in opinions, always in the wrong.   Was everything by starts, and nothing long;    But in the course of one revolving moon,     Was chymist, fiddler, statesman, and buffoon.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48953</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ability to learn faster than your competitors may be only sustainable competitive advantage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9212]]></link><description><![CDATA[The ability to learn faster than your competitors may be only sustainable competitive advantage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9212</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[150,000 of our fellow countrymen are in prison in the home country, because they have declared themselves against this fratricidal ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38534]]></link><description><![CDATA[150,000 of our fellow countrymen are in prison in the home country, because they have declared themselves against this fratricidal war.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[History is more or less bunk. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19331]]></link><description><![CDATA[History is more or less bunk.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19331</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't be scared of situations you get into that are bigger than you can possibly imagine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40082]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't be scared of situations you get into that are bigger than you can possibly imagine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40082</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When we get a big rain, the water comes up and spreads over the orchard.

His preaching is essentially private conversation, and has at the back of it facts, facts of a life which explain and illustrate and enforce his words... It is such missionary work, done consciously and deliberately as missionary, that the world needs today. Everybody, Christian and pagan alike, respects such work; and, when it is so done, men wonder, and inquire into the secret of a life which they instinctively admire and covet for themselves... The spirit which inspires love of others and efforts after their well-being, both in body and soul, they cannot but admire and covet -- unless, indeed, seeing that it would reform their own lives, they dread and hate it, because they do not desire to be reformed. In either case, it works.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7862</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mice which helplessly find themselves between the cats' teeth acquire no merit from their enforced sacrifice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54613]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mice which helplessly find themselves between the cats' teeth acquire no merit from their enforced sacrifice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54613</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["When I am white I win because I am white.
