For an achievement does not settle anything permanently. We still have to prove our worth anew each day: we have to prove that we are as good today as we were yesterday. But when we have a valid alibi for not achieving anything we are fixed, so to speak, for life. Moreover, when we have an alibi for not writing a book, painting a picture, and so on, we have an alibi for not writing the greatest book and not painting the greatest picture. Small wonder that the effort expended and the punishment endured in obtaining a good alibi often exceed the effort and grief requisite for the attainment of a most marked achievement.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Malice drinks one half of its own poison. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26225]]></link><description><![CDATA[Malice drinks one half of its own poison.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Concluding a short series on topics of Christian apologetics:  We need to forget the imaginary Christ who has been ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6252]]></link><description><![CDATA[Concluding a short series on topics of Christian apologetics:  We need to forget the imaginary Christ who has been ours too long and to rediscover the real Christ, the Christ of the prophets and the martyrs and the confessors, the Christ who is not only the lover of souls but also master, a monarch with demands to make in industry, in finance, in education, in the arts, in marriage, in the home; the Christ who is teacher of a social ideology which has eternal validity; the Christ who cries aloud with convincing force, "He who would save his life will lose it; only he who is willing to lose his life, can find it.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6252</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He has a lot of development and planning experience in the Central Valley, not Bay Area experience, and that's important. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42330]]></link><description><![CDATA[He has a lot of development and planning experience in the Central Valley, not Bay Area experience, and that's important.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42330</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The race went well but the start was difficult.

He insists he had 'legal authority derived from the Constitution and congressional resolution authorizing force.' But the Constitution explicitly requires the president to obey the law. And the post 9/11 congressional resolution authorizing 'all necessary force' in fighting terrorism was made in clear reference to military intervention.
