My attitude is if somebody blunders into the level of popularity, at least remember the human factor. These guys are still human beings and hopefully still have hearts and if you keep in touch with them rather than vilify them you may be able to encourage them to go in the right direction. What I'm hoping will eventually happen is that they will grasp the amount of power and financial clout that is now at their fingertips and use those as tools to help real people with real things the way punk politics was always designed to do before, but nobody had any money.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18306</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's been great on defense this year.

The passage of Scripture which subdued and controlled my mind was this, "The servant of the Lord must not strive." It was painful indeed to see the church, with the exception of the aisles, almost forsaken; but I thought that if God would only give a double blessing to the congregation that did attend, there would on the whole be as much good done as if the congregation were doubled and the blessing limited to only half the amount. This comforted me many, many times, when, without such a reflection, I should have sunk under my burden.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6783</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man can become so accustomed to the thought of his own faults that he will begin to cherish them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15434]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man can become so accustomed to the thought of his own faults that he will begin to cherish them as charming little "personal characteristics."]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I like to eat good food.
