For how else can we explain the success of those we don't like? •Jean Cocteau  Sometimes I worry about being a success in a mediocre world. •Lily Tomlin  The penalty for success is to be bored by the people who used to snub you. •Nancy Astor  For you to be successful, sacrifices must be made. It's better that they are made by others but failing that, you'll have to make them yourself. •Rita Mae Brown  Part of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside. •Mark Twain  The way to learn to do things is to do things. The way to learn a trade is to work at it. Success teaches how to succeed. Begin with the determination to succeed, and the work is half done already. •J.N. Fadenburg   Make a success of living by seeing the goal and aiming for it unswervingly. •Cecil B. Demille  I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. •Abraham Lincoln  The secret of success is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake those, you've got it made. •Groucho Marx  Americans are the only people in the world known to me whose status anxiety prompts them to advertise their college and university affiliations in the rear window of their automobiles.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58145</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The brave find a home in every land. [Lat., Omne solum forti patria est.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4864]]></link><description><![CDATA[The brave find a home in every land. [Lat., Omne solum forti patria est.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4864</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His fair large front and eye sublime declared Absolute rule; and hyacinthine locks  Round from his parted forelock manly ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54485]]></link><description><![CDATA[His fair large front and eye sublime declared Absolute rule; and hyacinthine locks  Round from his parted forelock manly hung   Clustering but not beneath his shoulders broad.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54485</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you want to see the true measure of a man, watch how he treats his inferiors, not his equals. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66809]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you want to see the true measure of a man, watch how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66809</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Jeremy Taylor, Bishop of Down & Connor, Priest, Teacher, 1667 Commemoration of Florence Nightingale, Social Reformer, 1910 Commemoration ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6982]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Jeremy Taylor, Bishop of Down & Connor, Priest, Teacher, 1667 Commemoration of Florence Nightingale, Social Reformer, 1910 Commemoration of Octavia Hill, Worker for the Poor, 1912   The kingdom of God does not consist in words, but in power, the power of Godliness. Though now we are fallen upon another method, we have turned all religion into faith, and our faith is nothing but the production of interest or disputing; it is adhering to a party and a wrangling against all the world beside--and when it is asked of what religion he is, we understand the meaning to be what faction does he follow, what are the articles of his sect, not what is the manner of his life: and if men be zealous for their party and that interest, then they are precious men, though otherwise they be covetous as the grave, factious as Dathan, schismatical as Korah, or proud as the fallen angels.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We ought to give thanks for all fortune: it is is good, because it is good, if bad, because it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16564]]></link><description><![CDATA[We ought to give thanks for all fortune: it is is good, because it is good, if bad, because it works in us patience, humility and the contempt of this world and the hope of our eternal country]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All intelligent thoughts have already been thought; what is necessary is only to try to think them again. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64301]]></link><description><![CDATA[All intelligent thoughts have already been thought; what is necessary is only to try to think them again.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64301</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave himself up for her.
