It is what the customer gets out and is willing to pay for. A product is not quality because it is hard to make and costs a lot of money, as manufacturers typically believe. This is incompetence. Customers pay only for what is of use to them and gives them value. Nothing else constitutes quality.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The murmur that springs From the growing of grass. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57297]]></link><description><![CDATA[The murmur that springs From the growing of grass.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57297</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We can never be sure that the opinion we are endeavoring to stifle is a false opinion; and even if ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53862]]></link><description><![CDATA[We can never be sure that the opinion we are endeavoring to stifle is a false opinion; and even if we were sure, stifling it would be an evil still.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53862</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think nobody owns the land until their dead are in it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23985]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think nobody owns the land until their dead are in it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23985</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pride is seldom delicate; it will please itself with very mean advantages. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48219]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pride is seldom delicate; it will please itself with very mean advantages.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not fit the public trusts should be lodged in the hands of any till they are first proved ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52511]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not fit the public trusts should be lodged in the hands of any till they are first proved and found fit for the business they are to be entrusted with.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He alone is an acute observer, who can observe minutely without being observed ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44784]]></link><description><![CDATA[He alone is an acute observer, who can observe minutely without being observed]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44784</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yeah, man, kids today are smarter than we ever were.

But he could not read Latin, and so the Scriptures were a closed book to him. However, he hired two money-minded priests, who, in violation of strict regulations, translated the Bible for him into Provençal, the language of southern France. The content of the Word of God made such an impression upon this earnest man that he gave up his business, took upon himself a vow of poverty, and dedicated himself to the simple preaching of the contents of God's Word.  The Latin of the Church only mystified its hearers [but] Waldo's humble preaching edified the souls of men. His words were not spectacular but powerful, as he pleaded with them to repent. Much of his preaching and that of his followers consisted in reciting long passages of Scripture in the vernacular. Many of them could not afford an expensive handwritten copy of the Bible, and the ecclesiastical authorities could too easily rob them of such a book; but they could not erase the words which were treasured in the heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6708</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I always try to be smart.
