They're fun and entertaining. But there's a limit to what consumers will spend -- they're already buying games, ring tones, videos, and music. The average cell-phone bill is already around $50. And consumers have shown [a willingness] to spend an extra 5% to 10% a month for data services. But they're not going to spend an unlimited amount for more and more services.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39334</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May I govern my passions with absolute sway, And grow wiser and better as my strength wears away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45612]]></link><description><![CDATA[May I govern my passions with absolute sway, And grow wiser and better as my strength wears away.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45612</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The birds have ceased their songs, All save the blackbird, that from yon tall ash,  'Mid Pinkie's greenery, from ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4283]]></link><description><![CDATA[The birds have ceased their songs, All save the blackbird, that from yon tall ash,  'Mid Pinkie's greenery, from his mellow throat,   In adoration of the setting sun,    Chants forth his evening hymn.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4283</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There was a sense of self-doubt in India, within itself.

Often the layman dismisses what the preacher says as something irrelevant to his situation and generation. When he joins a group where he is no longer afraid to be frank, the supposedly faithful member often admits that he has never really accepted what he thinks he has heard. He has, for example, grave reservations about the idea of creation. Did not the world evolve of itself? Do we really need the hypothesis of Infinite Purpose to make sense of the physical, biological, and psychological development? These questions seldom come to the surface when the Church provides merely a one-way preaching. There is little chance of renewal if all that we have is the arrangement by which one speaks and the others listen. One trouble with this conventional system is that the speaker never knows what the unanswered questions are, or what reservations remain in the layman's mentality.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7850</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Inner peace can be reached only when we practice forgiveness.Forgiveness is letting go of the past, and is therefore the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22353]]></link><description><![CDATA[Inner peace can be reached only when we practice forgiveness.Forgiveness is letting go of the past, and is therefore the means forcorrecting our misperceptions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men who wish to know about the world must learn about it in its particular details. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64727]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men who wish to know about the world must learn about it in its particular details.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64727</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't like giving names to generations.

Friend and foe alike are agreed on the question of the character of Jesus Christ... Whatever our creed, we stand with admiration before the sublime character of Jesus. Character is supreme in life, and hence Jesus stood supreme in the supreme thing -- so supreme that, when we think of the ideal, we do not add virtue to virtue, but think of Jesus Christ, so that the standard of human life is no longer a code, but a character.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But what is liberty without wisdom, and without virtue?
