Unknown  Stop the mindless wishing that things would be different. Rather than wasting time and emotional and spiritual energy in explaining why we don't have what we want, we can start to pursue other ways to get it. •Greg Anderson   A man of the world must seem to be what he wishes to be thought. •Jean De La Bruyère   Wishes expand in direct proportion to the resources available for their gratification. •Robert Dato  A wish is a desire without an attempt. •Farmer Digest  Oh, the secret life of man and woman -- dreaming how much better we would be than we are if we were somebody else or even ourselves, and feeling that our estate has been unexploited to its fullest. •Zelda Fitzgerald  Men try to run life according to their wishes; life runs itself according to necessity. •Jean Toomer  Some people develop a wishbone where their backbone should be. •Anonymous  Indeed, man wishes to be happy even when he so lives as to make happiness impossible. •St. Augustine   When you love someone all your saved-up wishes start coming out. •Elizabeth Bowen   Whoever, in middle age, attempts to realize the wishes and hopes of his early youth, invariably deceives himself. Each ten years of a man's life has its own fortunes, its own hopes, its own desires. •Goethe   Destiny grants us our wishes, but in its own way, in order to give us something beyond our wishes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61799</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As we know, forgiveness of oneself is the hardest of all the forgivenesses. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65096]]></link><description><![CDATA[As we know, forgiveness of oneself is the hardest of all the forgivenesses.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65096</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It isn't necessary to be rich and famous to be happy.

Christianity has been trying to achieve a revolution by consciousness for two thousand years. Who would deny that Christian consciousness could have changed the world? Yet it was the world that changed Christian consciousness. If everybody adopted a peaceful, loving, generous, noncompetitive lifestyle, we could have something better than counter-culture -- we could have the Kingdom of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6361</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gratitude is one of the least articulate of the emotions, especially when it is deep. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18183]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gratitude is one of the least articulate of the emotions, especially when it is deep.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18183</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We believe in and are developing a broad-based equity plan so that all our people can participate in a stock-option ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34291]]></link><description><![CDATA[We believe in and are developing a broad-based equity plan so that all our people can participate in a stock-option program that will enable them to share in the growth potential of the company.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34291</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sickness seizes the body from bad ventilation. [Lat., Aere non certo corpora languor habet.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12490]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sickness seizes the body from bad ventilation. [Lat., Aere non certo corpora languor habet.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ideologies separate us.

Let us say that man is the kind of creature who naturally sees the world from a very limited perspective, that he tends to be self-centered and to prefer the interests that are closest to himself and to his own social group. Let us say that man is naturally unwilling to accept his limited or finite status, that he is always seeking to extend his control over others, that he seeks to maintain his own security by means of power over all who may threaten it, that he likes to be in a position to compare himself with others to their disadvantage, that he seeks to be self-sufficient and to deny in effect his dependence upon God and to set up his own group or system or ideal in the place of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6288</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I thought his form last season was fantastic and in the Tri-Series he was first class.

I am told that even respectable characters speak of a monarchical form of government without horror. From thinking proceeds speaking, thence to acting is often but a single step. But how irrevocable and tremendous! What a triumph for the advocates of despotism to find that we are incapable of governing ourselves, and that systems founded on the basis of equal liberty are merely ideal & fallacious!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60291</guid></item></channel></rss>
