Money can't buy a clear conscience—square dealing is the price tag. Money can't buy the glow of good health—right living is the secret. Money can't buy happiness—happiness is a mental condition and one may be as happy in a cottage as in a mansion. Money can't buy sunsets, songs of wild birds and the music of the wind in the trees—these are as free as the air we breath. Money can't buy inward peace—peace is the result of a constructive philosophy in life. Money can't buy a good character—good character is achieved through decent habits of private living and wholesome dealings in our open contacts with our fellow men.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For blocks are better cleft with wedges, Tan tools of sharp or subtle edges,  And dullest nonsense has been ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44607]]></link><description><![CDATA[For blocks are better cleft with wedges, Tan tools of sharp or subtle edges,  And dullest nonsense has been found   By some to be the most profound.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44607</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That should keep them going for a while on the Ice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40007]]></link><description><![CDATA[That should keep them going for a while on the Ice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40007</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Athanasian Creed is the most splendid ecclesiastical lyric ever poured forth by the genius of man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12630]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Athanasian Creed is the most splendid ecclesiastical lyric ever poured forth by the genius of man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12630</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The miserable man makes a peny of a farthing, and the liberall of a farthing sixe pence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49895]]></link><description><![CDATA[The miserable man makes a peny of a farthing, and the liberall of a farthing sixe pence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Princes that would their people should do well Must at themselves begin, as at the head;  For men, by ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54475]]></link><description><![CDATA[Princes that would their people should do well Must at themselves begin, as at the head;  For men, by their example, pattern out   Their limitations, and regard of laws:    A virtuous court a world to virtue draws.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54475</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When all sinnes grow old, coveteousnesse is young. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50068]]></link><description><![CDATA[When all sinnes grow old, coveteousnesse is young.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50068</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The court has had to take a hard look at our resources and make difficult decisions balancing competing demands for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40414]]></link><description><![CDATA[The court has had to take a hard look at our resources and make difficult decisions balancing competing demands for resources.
