The best games are not those in which all goes smoothly and steadily toward a certain conclusion, but those in which the outcome is always in doubt. Similarly, the geometry of life is designed to keep us at the point of maximum tension between certainty and uncertainty, order and chaos. Every important call is a close one. We survive and evolve by the skin of our teeth. We really wouldn't want it any other way.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1161</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Within a bony labrinthean cave, Reached by the pulse of the aerial wave,  This sibyl, sweet, and Mystic Sense ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18980]]></link><description><![CDATA[Within a bony labrinthean cave, Reached by the pulse of the aerial wave,  This sibyl, sweet, and Mystic Sense is found,   Muse, that presides o'er all the Powers of Sound.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This will be the best all-around boxing card ever here in Los Angeles, ...

He may hand down everything else, so long as it is material and not pertaining to his person, for it may be acquired and disposed of as property and may over a series of generations create considerable inequalities in wealth among the mem­bers of the commonwealt. But he may not prevent his sub­ordinates from raising themselves to his own level if they are able and entitled to do so by their talent, industry and good fortune. If this were not so, he would be allowed to practise coercion without himself being subject to coercive counter-measures from others, and would thus be more than their fellow-subject.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20786</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sound, sound the clarion, fill the fife! To all the sensual world proclaim,  One crowded hour of glorious life ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17560]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sound, sound the clarion, fill the fife! To all the sensual world proclaim,  One crowded hour of glorious life   Is worth an age without a name.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This survey highlights the importance that brands play within many aspects of our lives, and reveals some interesting trends, such ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28984]]></link><description><![CDATA[This survey highlights the importance that brands play within many aspects of our lives, and reveals some interesting trends, such as the dominance of technology and Internet-based brands.
