Money can't buy a clear conscience—square dealing is the price tag. Money can't buy the glow of good health—right living is the secret. Money can't buy happiness—happiness is a mental condition and one may be as happy in a cottage as in a mansion. Money can't buy sunsets, songs of wild birds and the music of the wind in the trees—these are as free as the air we breath. Money can't buy inward peace—peace is the result of a constructive philosophy in life. Money can't buy a good character—good character is achieved through decent habits of private living and wholesome dealings in our open contacts with our fellow men.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Top 10 Creative Rules of Thumb: 1.

The best way to get great ideas is to get lots of ideas and throw the bad ones away. 2. Create ideas that are 15 minutes ahead of their time...not light years ahead. 3. Always look for a second right answer. 4. If at first you don't succeed, take a break. 5. Write down your ideas before you forget them. 6. If everyone says you are wrong, you're one step ahead. If everyone laughs at you, you're two steps ahead. 7. The answer to your problem "pre-exists." You need to ask the right question to reveal the answer. 8. When you ask a dumb question, you get a smart answer. 9. Never solve a problem from its original perspective. 10. Visualize your problem as solved before solving it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only thing more expensive than education is ignorance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20377]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only thing more expensive than education is ignorance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20377</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Start out with an ideal and end up with a deal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39517]]></link><description><![CDATA[Start out with an ideal and end up with a deal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a vast difference between saying prayers and praying ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48030]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a vast difference between saying prayers and praying]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48030</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66600]]></link><description><![CDATA[Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Adam has a good defense in front of him that is playing better and he has been playing better as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38087]]></link><description><![CDATA[Adam has a good defense in front of him that is playing better and he has been playing better as the season has progressed.

It is cantankerous, and it is independent. The idea of independence is the key. It really is like colonialism. The colonies suddenly decide that they can and should exist with their own personality and should detach from the control of the mother country. At first the colony is perceived as being treacherous. It's a betrayal. Ultimately, it can be seen as the separation of a partner that could be very valuable as an equal rather than as something you dominate.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4450</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yet 'tis greater skill In a true hate to pray they have their will;  The very devils cannot plague ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18863]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yet 'tis greater skill In a true hate to pray they have their will;  The very devils cannot plague them better.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18863</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3787]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.
