This sets a fashion which others imitate. Once the richer classes have adopted a certain way of living, producers have an incentive to improve the methods of manufacture so that soon it is possible for the poorer classes to follow suit.

Luxury is the roadmaker of progress: it develops latent needs and makes people discontented. In so far as they think consistently, moralists who condemn luxury must recommend the comparatively desireless existence of the wild life roaming in the woods as the ultimate ideal of civilized life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15738</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[False friendship, like the ivy, decays and ruins the walls it embraces; but true friendship gives new life and animation ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16960]]></link><description><![CDATA[False friendship, like the ivy, decays and ruins the walls it embraces; but true friendship gives new life and animation to the object it supports.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16960</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh Ronald McDonald when you smileeach of your teeth gravestones stands forbillions and billions of lives. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/755]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh Ronald McDonald when you smileeach of your teeth gravestones stands forbillions and billions of lives.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/755</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A novel is a mirror carried along a main road. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25321]]></link><description><![CDATA[A novel is a mirror carried along a main road.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25321</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not necessary to retain facts that we may reason concerning them. [Fr., Il n'est pas necessaire de tenir ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53088]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not necessary to retain facts that we may reason concerning them. [Fr., Il n'est pas necessaire de tenir les choses pour en raisonner.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53088</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing will ever be attempted if all possible objections must be firstovercome. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22461]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing will ever be attempted if all possible objections must be firstovercome.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All complaine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49098]]></link><description><![CDATA[All complaine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49098</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If she's playing like she was today, she can be a one man team.
