The goals you set for yourselfand the strategies you choose become your blueprint or plan. Strategiesare like recipes: choose the right ingredients, mix them in the correctproportions, and you will always produce the same predictable results: inthis case financial success. The success strategies for managing money andbuilding wealth are called Money Strategies. By learning to use moneystrategies as a part of your day-to-day life, financial frustration andfailure will become a thing of the past.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Her voice was like the voice the stars Had when they sang together. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60921]]></link><description><![CDATA[Her voice was like the voice the stars Had when they sang together.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60921</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.

Only when even the smallest link is securely interlocked is the chain unbreakable. A community which allows unemployed members to exist within it will perish because of them. It will be well, therefore, if every member receives a definite task to perform for the community, that he may know in hours of doubt that he, too, is not useless and unusable. Every Christian community must realize that not only do the weak need the strong, but also that the strong cannot exist without the weak. The elimination of the weak is the death of the fellowship.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8582</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can't say it's autobiographical, but I do tell a number of anecdotes that I think are amusing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29915]]></link><description><![CDATA[I can't say it's autobiographical, but I do tell a number of anecdotes that I think are amusing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29915</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O what a loud and fearful shriek was there! . . .  Ah me! they view'd beneath an hireling's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16673]]></link><description><![CDATA[O what a loud and fearful shriek was there! . . .  Ah me! they view'd beneath an hireling's sword   Fallen Kosciusco.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16673</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you have to think about whether you love someone or not then the answer is no.

For when the heart really pants and longs after God, its prayer is a praying, as moved and animated by the Spirit of God; it is the breath or inspiration of God, stirring, moving and opening itself in the heart. For though the early nature, our old man, can oblige or accustom himself to take heavenly words at certain times into his mouth, yet this is a certain truth, that nothing ever did, or can have the least desire or tendency to ascend to heaven, but that which came down from heaven; and therefore nothing in the heart can pray, aspire, and long after God, but the Spirit of God moving and stirring in it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6955</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was a terrible tragedy, but I was pleased being out of town and having these discussions (of retirement) going ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37450]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was a terrible tragedy, but I was pleased being out of town and having these discussions (of retirement) going on to see all these good things that the company and my team did without me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37450</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prime Minister: [on the phone to his sister] I'm very busy and important.
