DC Studios was finally deducting Federal Taxes, another step we looked forward to during this acquisition. This happened twice in November, yet no new contracts had been drawn which justified any Dallas member as an actual employee of DC Studios. We questioned this matter, and in December, our first check came in and it was back to the old figures, where no taxes were being taken out.

When summarized in a few neat words or phrases, these gems of wisdom become substitutes for thought, and gradually take on much of the status of revealed truth. Occasionally, some iconoclast sees fit to challenge one of them, and a brief flurry ensues, after which things go on about as before. It is easy to think of plenty of ideas that are passing, if they have not already passed, beyond the stage of effective discussion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52062</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My mom says for a good half-hour he searches for me everywhere, so it's hard to leave him when I ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32548]]></link><description><![CDATA[My mom says for a good half-hour he searches for me everywhere, so it's hard to leave him when I know he does that.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32548</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A total commitment is paramount to reaching the ultimate in performance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2010]]></link><description><![CDATA[A total commitment is paramount to reaching the ultimate in performance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2010</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a man's mind becomes pure, his surroundings will also become pure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52596]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a man's mind becomes pure, his surroundings will also become pure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[accomplished what we did this quarter in large part because of our no-late-fees program, not in spite of it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38628]]></link><description><![CDATA[accomplished what we did this quarter in large part because of our no-late-fees program, not in spite of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As he was valiant, I honour him.

For it is to this end that he brings his own body into subjection, that he may be able to serve others more sincerely and more freely... Thus it is impossible that he should take his ease in this life, and not work for the good of his neighbors, since he must needs speak, act, and converse among men, just as Christ... had His conversation among men... It is the part of a Christian to take care of his own body for the very purpose that by its soundness and wellbeing he may be enabled to labor... for the aid of those who are in want, that thus the stronger member may serve the weaker member, and we may be children of God, and busy for one another, bearing one another's burdens, and so fulfilling the law of Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8279</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where is home?
