The verdict you pronounce upon the source of your livelihood is the verdict you pronounce upon your life. If the source is corrupt, you have damned your own existence. Did you get your money by fraud? By pandering to men's vices or men's stupidity? By catering to fools, in the hope of getting more than your ability deserves? By lowering your standards? By doing work you despise for purchasers your scorn? If so, then your money will not give you a moment's or a penny's worth of joy. Then all the things you buy will become, not a tribute to you, but a reproach; not an achievement, but a reminder of shame. Then you'll scream that money is evil. Evil, because it would not pinch-hit for your self-respect? Evil, because it would not let you enjoy your depravity? Is this the root of your hatred of money?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42974</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62062]]></link><description><![CDATA[Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62062</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Raise the urinals. (on how management could keep the Braves on their toes) ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57623]]></link><description><![CDATA[Raise the urinals. (on how management could keep the Braves on their toes)]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57623</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You definitely have to respect this place, as we learned in the past with my father and my grandfather ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€Âœ ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41465]]></link><description><![CDATA[You definitely have to respect this place, as we learned in the past with my father and my grandfather ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€Âœ both had a lot of unfortunate luck here.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41465</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A young lady is a female child who has just done something dreadful. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23966]]></link><description><![CDATA[A young lady is a female child who has just done something dreadful.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23966</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We who officially value freedom of speech above life itself seem to have nothing to talk about but the weather. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46283]]></link><description><![CDATA[We who officially value freedom of speech above life itself seem to have nothing to talk about but the weather.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46283</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As a neighboring funeral terrifies sick misers, and fear obliges them to have some regard for themselves; so, the disgrace ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14396]]></link><description><![CDATA[As a neighboring funeral terrifies sick misers, and fear obliges them to have some regard for themselves; so, the disgrace of others will often deter tender minds from vice. [Lat., Avidos vicinum funus ut aegros  Exanimat, mortisque metu sibi parcere cogit;   Sic teneros animos aliena opprobria saepe    Absterrent vitiis.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14396</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is rarely that you see an American writer who is not hopelessly sane. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41502]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is rarely that you see an American writer who is not hopelessly sane.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41502</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59952]]></link><description><![CDATA[If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His genius he was quite content in one brief sentence to define; Of inspiration one percent, of perspiration, ninety nine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64036]]></link><description><![CDATA[His genius he was quite content in one brief sentence to define; Of inspiration one percent, of perspiration, ninety nine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64036</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If the Christian penitent dares to ask that his many departures from the Christian norm, his impatience, gloom, self-occupation, unloving ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7783]]></link><description><![CDATA[If the Christian penitent dares to ask that his many departures from the Christian norm, his impatience, gloom, self-occupation, unloving prejudices, reckless tongue, feverish desires, with all the damage they have caused to Christ's Body, be set aside, because -- because, in spite of all, he longs for God and Eternal Life: then he must set aside and forgive all that the impatience, selfishness, bitter and foolish speech, and sudden yieldings to base impulse by others have caused him to endure.
