But the NFL did a survey two years ago where they found out the people who play fantasy football actually are their season-ticket holders. So now we've turned a corner from, 'Is this gambling?' to the realization that, 'Hey, this a fun hobby played by a lot of our fans.' And for the most part, it's bragging rights -- not money -- that people are after in fantasy football.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36060</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts, but if he will be content to begin ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14570]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts, but if he will be content to begin with doubts, he shall end in certainties.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14570</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who the hell wants to hear actors talk? -- H.M.

The real questions refuse to be placated. They barge into your life at the times when it seems most important for them to stay away. They are the questions asked most frequently and answered most inadequately, the ones that reveal their true natures slowly, reluctantly, most often against your will. -Ingrid Bengis.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12245</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5690]]></link><description><![CDATA[And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5690</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[High in his chariot glow'd the lamp of day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58287]]></link><description><![CDATA[High in his chariot glow'd the lamp of day.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58287</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have no country to fight for; my country is the earth, and I am a citizen of the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8236]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have no country to fight for; my country is the earth, and I am a citizen of the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8236</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is dishonorably got, is dishonorably squandered. [Lat., Male parta, male dilabuntur.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47759]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is dishonorably got, is dishonorably squandered. [Lat., Male parta, male dilabuntur.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47759</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Inexperience can be used as an excuse or an opportunity.

To wipe out their past sins and, at all costs, to give them a fresh start, smoothing every difficulty and offering every miraculous help? But He has done so, on Calvary. To forgive them? They will not be forgiven. To leave them alone? Alas, I am afraid that that is what He does.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8544</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Peace has its victories no less than war, but it doesn't have as many monuments to unveil. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45889]]></link><description><![CDATA[Peace has its victories no less than war, but it doesn't have as many monuments to unveil.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45889</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing a short series about the early church:   As to the Emperor and the charge of high treason ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6844]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a short series about the early church:   As to the Emperor and the charge of high treason against us, Caesar's safety lies not in hands soldered on. We invoke the true God for the Emperor. Even if he persecute us, we are bidden to pray for them that persecute us, as you can read in our books, which are not hidden, which you often get hold of. We pray for him because the Empire lies between us and the end of the world. We count the Caesars to be God's vice-regents and swear by their safety (not by their genius, as required). As for loyalty, Caesar really is more ours than yours; for it was our God who set him up. It is for his own good, that we refuse to call the Emperor God; Father of his Country is a better title. No Christian has ever made a plot against a Caesar; the famous conspirators and assassins were heathen, one and all. Piety, religion, faith are our best offering of loyalty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6844</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Soldiers, forty centuries are looking down upon you from these pyramids. [Fr., Soldats, du haut ces Pyramide quarante siecles vous ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43049]]></link><description><![CDATA[Soldiers, forty centuries are looking down upon you from these pyramids. [Fr., Soldats, du haut ces Pyramide quarante siecles vous contemplent.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43049</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Histories make men wise; poets, witty; the mathematics, subtile; natural philosophy, deep; morals, grave; logic and rhetoric, able to contend. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13387]]></link><description><![CDATA[Histories make men wise; poets, witty; the mathematics, subtile; natural philosophy, deep; morals, grave; logic and rhetoric, able to contend.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13387</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Human civilization is not something achieved against nature; it is rather the outcome of the working of the innate qualities ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56781]]></link><description><![CDATA[Human civilization is not something achieved against nature; it is rather the outcome of the working of the innate qualities of man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56781</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our job is not to set things right but to see them right. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15932]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our job is not to set things right but to see them right.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15932</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm hoping we could develop a code fair to everyone throughout the city, but more importantly we need to have ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35751]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm hoping we could develop a code fair to everyone throughout the city, but more importantly we need to have backbone to enforce whatever we do adopt.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A light supper, a good night's sleep, and a fine morning have often made a hero of the same man ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19463]]></link><description><![CDATA[A light supper, a good night's sleep, and a fine morning have often made a hero of the same man who by indigestion, a restless night, and a rainy morning, would have proved a coward.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19463</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man can serve two masters. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26229]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man can serve two masters.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26229</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reading furnishes the mind only with materials for knowledge; it is thinking that makes what we read ours. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52388]]></link><description><![CDATA[Reading furnishes the mind only with materials for knowledge; it is thinking that makes what we read ours.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52388</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Internet lets us do that for first time in the history of computers.
