Specifically, I have learned that everything outside of me is a mirror of what is inside of me. I have also learned how to "infect the quantum field" or manifest reality by concentrating on particular ideas that I want to call into existance. My career success is due in large part to this new understanding of quantum physics, combined with the love and trust I share with Brian [Lewis].]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Humanity is acquiring all the right technology for all the wrong reasons. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9454]]></link><description><![CDATA[Humanity is acquiring all the right technology for all the wrong reasons.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9454</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All evils are equal when they are extreme. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11235]]></link><description><![CDATA[All evils are equal when they are extreme.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who will not mercie unto others show, How can he mercie ever hope to have? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27352]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who will not mercie unto others show, How can he mercie ever hope to have?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In man's life, the absence of an essential component usually leads to the adoption of a substitute.

The substitute is usually embraced with vehemence and extremism, for we have to convince ourselves that what we took as second choice is the best there ever was. Thus blind faith is to a considerable extent a substitute for the lost faith in ourselves; insatiable desire a substitute for hope; accumulation a substitute for growth; fervent hustling a substitute for purposeful action; and pride a substitute for an unattainable self-respect.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53657</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We kept our composure down the stretch and made some big shots. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41035]]></link><description><![CDATA[We kept our composure down the stretch and made some big shots.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41035</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I cried because I had no shoes, then I met a man who had no feet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26303]]></link><description><![CDATA[I cried because I had no shoes, then I met a man who had no feet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How few there are who have courage enough to own their faults, or resolution enough to mend them ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15436]]></link><description><![CDATA[How few there are who have courage enough to own their faults, or resolution enough to mend them]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15436</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am just elated that this part is over, and I feel the U.S. Supreme Court did justice in recognizing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31343]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am just elated that this part is over, and I feel the U.S. Supreme Court did justice in recognizing the feelings and the needs of people who have terminal illness, to be able to use that process in a compassionate and dignified manner.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31343</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Give to us clear vision that we may know where to stand and what to stand for--because unless we stand ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53550]]></link><description><![CDATA[Give to us clear vision that we may know where to stand and what to stand for--because unless we stand for something, we shall fall for anything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53550</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I have smashed the traditions, it was because I knew no traditions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42243]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I have smashed the traditions, it was because I knew no traditions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42243</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I got in trouble with the police, and that was a rude awakening.

This, I believe, is partly due to man's enormous technical successes, which make him feel master of the human situation. But it is also partly due to our scholars and experts. By the time they have finished with their dissection of the New Testament and with their explaining away as "myth" all that they find disquieting or unacceptable to the modern mind, the Christian way of life is little more than humanism with a slight tinge of religion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7779</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is such a thing as a nation being so right that it does not need to convince others by ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16443]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is such a thing as a nation being so right that it does not need to convince others by force that it is right.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16443</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You never have to change anything you got up in the middle of the night to write. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66178]]></link><description><![CDATA[You never have to change anything you got up in the middle of the night to write.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66178</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The goate must browse where she is tyed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49860]]></link><description><![CDATA[The goate must browse where she is tyed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49860</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When a man becomes familiar with his goddess, she quickly sinks into a woman. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15148]]></link><description><![CDATA[When a man becomes familiar with his goddess, she quickly sinks into a woman.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15148</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is curious-curious that physical courage should be so common in the world, and moral courage so rare. -Mark Twain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10371]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is curious-curious that physical courage should be so common in the world, and moral courage so rare. -Mark Twain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10371</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The unity of freedom has never relied on uniformity of opinion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16713]]></link><description><![CDATA[The unity of freedom has never relied on uniformity of opinion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16713</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A people without history is like the wind on the buffalo grass. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51888]]></link><description><![CDATA[A people without history is like the wind on the buffalo grass.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51888</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world is a playground, and life is pushing my swing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62183]]></link><description><![CDATA[The world is a playground, and life is pushing my swing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62183</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The will is not free - it is a phenomenon bound by cause and effect - but there is something ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66645]]></link><description><![CDATA[The will is not free - it is a phenomenon bound by cause and effect - but there is something behind the will which is free.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66645</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Seems like Tokyo stocks hit the short-term bottom on Monday.
