The best way to get great ideas is to get lots of ideas and throw the bad ones away. 2. Create ideas that are 15 minutes ahead of their time...not light years ahead. 3. Always look for a second right answer. 4. If at first you don't succeed, take a break. 5. Write down your ideas before you forget them. 6. If everyone says you are wrong, you're one step ahead. If everyone laughs at you, you're two steps ahead. 7. The answer to your problem "pre-exists." You need to ask the right question to reveal the answer. 8. When you ask a dumb question, you get a smart answer. 9. Never solve a problem from its original perspective. 10. Visualize your problem as solved before solving it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll drink a cup to Scotland yet, Wi' a' the honours three. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59412]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'll drink a cup to Scotland yet, Wi' a' the honours three.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59412</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A stiff apology is a second insult...

He is nothing of the kind: he is simply a man who is sure of his foundation, and is convinced that the only way to any true advancement is spiritual, and is Christ; and therefore he persists, in spite of all appearances, in clinging to Christ as the only foundation, and in building all his hopes for the future on the acceptance of Christ. He is not content with attacks upon symptoms of evil; they seem to him superficial: he goes to the roots. He cannot be content with teaching men Christian principles of conduct, "Christian ideals of social life" -- still less with the establishment of colleges and clubs. Nothing but Christ Himself, faith in Christ, the obedience of Christ, seems to him equal to the need, and nothing else is his work but the establishment of that foundation. In doing this he is not showing indifference to social evils, he is not standing aloof from beneficent movements; he is actively engaged in laying the axe to the roots of the trees which bear the evil. That is not indifference.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7839</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is an all-out vindication for Michael Jackson and his supporters. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32384]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is an all-out vindication for Michael Jackson and his supporters.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32384</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each honest calling, each walk of life, has its own elite, its own aristocracy based on excellence of performance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57509]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each honest calling, each walk of life, has its own elite, its own aristocracy based on excellence of performance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wisdom outweighs any wealth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8014]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wisdom outweighs any wealth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8014</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Patrick, Bishop of Armagh, Missionary, Patron of Ireland, c.460   The evidence for Christian truth is not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6355]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Patrick, Bishop of Armagh, Missionary, Patron of Ireland, c.460   The evidence for Christian truth is not exhaustive, but it is sufficient.
