A higher price represents an opportunity that leads inventors and businesspeople to seek new ways to satisfy the shortages. Some fail, at cost to themselves. A few succeed, and the final result is that we end up better off than if the original shortage problems had never arisen. That is, we need our problems, though this does not imply that we should purposely create additional problems for ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15736</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a great honor that the other coaches in this league have voted me as the Coach of the Year, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39672]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's a great honor that the other coaches in this league have voted me as the Coach of the Year, but in all reality it would have never happened without the season-long effort of each member on our team and our assistant coaches.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39672</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58125]]></link><description><![CDATA[I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do what you can, with what you have, where you are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/112]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/112</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Friendship makes prosperity brighter, while it lightens adversity by sharing its griefs and anxieties. [Lat., Secundas res splendidiores facit amicitia, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16870]]></link><description><![CDATA[Friendship makes prosperity brighter, while it lightens adversity by sharing its griefs and anxieties. [Lat., Secundas res splendidiores facit amicitia, et adversas partiens communicansque leviores.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16870</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not clear that the Fed is going to move in June.

Thus pride may seem to be nothing but a frame of mind belonging unto our wealth and dignity, or our ... abilities; sensuality may seem to be but a lawful participation of the good things of this life; passion and peevishness, but a due sense of the want of respect that we must suppose owing unto us; covetousness, a necessary care of ourselves and of our families. If the seeds of sin are covered with such pretences, they will in time spring up and bear bitter fruit in the minds and the lives of men; and the beginning of all apostasy, both in religion and in morality, lies in just such pretences. Men plead that they can do so-and-so lawfully, until they can do things openly unlawful.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only real elegance is in the mind; if you've got that, the rest really comes from it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64597]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only real elegance is in the mind; if you've got that, the rest really comes from it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64597</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Today's egg is better than tomorrow's hen ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5282]]></link><description><![CDATA[Today's egg is better than tomorrow's hen]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not the literal past, the "facts" of history, that shape us, but images of the past embodied in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19433]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not the literal past, the "facts" of history, that shape us, but images of the past embodied in language.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19433</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I experience a period of frightening clarity in those moments when nature is so beautiful.

They do not prove beyond all question the existence of the God of the Bible. Furthermore, it must be remembered that man's mind, his thinking process, has been affected by his fall into sin. This means that there are definite limitations to God's revelation in nature.
