If anyone thinks this is perilous and revolutionary teaching, so much the better. That is exactly what they thought of the teaching of Jesus Christ. The light He brought to bear upon human affairs is almost unbearably brilliant: but it is the light of Truth, and in that light human problems can be solved.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If at first you don't succeed, you are running about average. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21127]]></link><description><![CDATA[If at first you don't succeed, you are running about average.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21127</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2215]]></link><description><![CDATA[We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thurston has some great shooters, but our defense just got in their face and shut them down. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34112]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thurston has some great shooters, but our defense just got in their face and shut them down.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34112</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In a start-up company, you basically throw out all assumptions every three weeks. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9137]]></link><description><![CDATA[In a start-up company, you basically throw out all assumptions every three weeks.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9137</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the purpose that makes strong the vow; But vows to every purpose must not hold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61033]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the purpose that makes strong the vow; But vows to every purpose must not hold.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61033</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To the degree we can live without the things of this world, to thatdegree we are wealthy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21380]]></link><description><![CDATA[To the degree we can live without the things of this world, to thatdegree we are wealthy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21380</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People in their 20s have a lot of time to grow their investments and don't need to be too conservative, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39468]]></link><description><![CDATA[People in their 20s have a lot of time to grow their investments and don't need to be too conservative,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think this will be more of a company-led expansion instead of one led by consumers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40741]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think this will be more of a company-led expansion instead of one led by consumers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40741</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I heard the little bird say so. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17891]]></link><description><![CDATA[I heard the little bird say so.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I'd known I was gonna live this long.
