Imagine an industry that consistently fails to do what it sets out to do. a factory where this year's product is invariably sleazier than last year's but, nevertheless, better than next year's. Imagine a corporation whose executives are always spending vast sums of money on studies designed to discover just what it is they are supposed to do and then vaster sums for further studies on just how to do it. Imagine a plant devoted to the manufacture of factory seconds to be sold at a loss. Imagine a producer of vacuum cleaners that rarely work hiring whole platoons of engineers who will, in time, report that it is, in fact, true that the vacuum cleaners rarely really work, and who will, for a larger fee, be glad to find out why, if that's possible. If you discover some such outfit, don't invest in it. Unfortunately, we are all required to invest in public education.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56990</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It takes two men to make one brother. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66119]]></link><description><![CDATA[It takes two men to make one brother.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66119</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May all your troubles last as long as your New Year's resolutions ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38302]]></link><description><![CDATA[May all your troubles last as long as your New Year's resolutions]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Believe me, the gods spare the afflicted, and do not always oppress those who are unfortunate. [Lat., Crede mihi, miseris ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1660]]></link><description><![CDATA[Believe me, the gods spare the afflicted, and do not always oppress those who are unfortunate. [Lat., Crede mihi, miseris coelestia numina parcunt;  Nec semper laesos, et sine fine, premunt.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1660</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't believe I've ever caused all three turnovers in a game and gotten two of them.
