We proceeded to live these propositions, though we would not have stated them as blandly as I set them forth here:   Man is inherently good.  Individual man can carve out his own salvation with the help of education and society through progressively better government.  Reality and values worth searching for lie in the material world that science is steadily teaching us to analyze, catalogue, and measure. While we do not deny the existence of inner values, we relegate them to second place.  The purpose of life is happiness, [which] we define in terms of enjoyable activity, friends, and the accumulation of material objects.  The pain and evil of life -- such as ignorance, poverty, selfishness, hatred, greed, lust for power -- are caused by factors in the external world; therefore, the cure lies in the reforming of human institutions and the bettering of environmental conditions.  As science and technology remove poverty and lift from us the burden of physical existence, we shall automatically become finer persons, seeing for ourselves the value of living the Golden Rule.  In time, the rest of the world will appreciate the demonstration that the American way of life is best. They will then seek for themselves the good life of freedom and prosperity. This will be the greatest impetus toward an end of global conflict.  The way to get along with people is to beware of religious dictums and dogma. The ideal is to be a nice person and to live by the Creed of Tolerance. Thus we offend few people. We live and let live. This is the American Way.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8336</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bird loves her nest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49804]]></link><description><![CDATA[The bird loves her nest.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We thought it was going to happen, we've been dreaming it for 32 years, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38514]]></link><description><![CDATA[We thought it was going to happen, we've been dreaming it for 32 years,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38514</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He is singularly unequipped to beat these people. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37557]]></link><description><![CDATA[He is singularly unequipped to beat these people.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There were governments that were not willing to make the concessions necessary, there were spoilers also in the group, let's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40211]]></link><description><![CDATA[There were governments that were not willing to make the concessions necessary, there were spoilers also in the group, let's be quite honest about that, ...

It is easy, we think, to be loyal to a family and clan, whose blood is in your own veins.

As a defenseman, I look at scoring negatively, but it works both ways. I wonder about the expectations though. I played in Sweden, without a red line, and I don't think the game was faster. On the other hand, I wasn't playing with the best players in the world, as in the NHL. We'll adjust to the new icing rules and in a few years we won't remember what it was like before. There's always calls for new rules, but I just hope the game doesn't change too drastically.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28469</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Technology is destructive only in the hands of people who do not realize that they are one and the same ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9399]]></link><description><![CDATA[Technology is destructive only in the hands of people who do not realize that they are one and the same process as the universe. -Alan Watts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All children are artists.
