In fact, I believe that this government effort is a fishing expedition that unnecessarily disrupts the normal business operations of resellers and the manufacturers that supply them. If the government thought something was really wrong, they wouldn't have cast such a wide net to go hunting. I think this is a classic example of prosecutorial overreach.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Look upon the world as your enemy because only then the gifts it gives will give you immense pleasure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46724]]></link><description><![CDATA[Look upon the world as your enemy because only then the gifts it gives will give you immense pleasure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46724</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wouldn't.

The high infant mortality rate on reservations is due to devastating poverty. Yet the state has not passed any laws in the last several years that would boost any of the health or education programs within the reservation community. As for tribal sovereignty, the only time the state wants to recognize it is when it benefits the state, as in this instance when it allows Senator Napoli to opt out of an intelligent response.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31440</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The man who forms the habit of beginning without finishing has simply formed the habit of failure. •Mrs. Charles E. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14934]]></link><description><![CDATA[The man who forms the habit of beginning without finishing has simply formed the habit of failure. •Mrs. Charles E.

Paul Getty   Failure is not fatal; victory is not success. •Tony Richardson   Don't fear failure so much that you refuse to try new things. The saddest summary of a life contains three descriptions: could have, might have, and should have. •Louis Boone   Failure is simply a few errors in judgment, repeated every day. •Jim Rohn  There are two kinds of failures: those who thought and never did, and those who did and never thought. •Laurence J.

Failure is never fatal. •Joe Paterno   Our business in this world is not to succeed, but to continue to fail, in good spirits. •Robert Louis Stevenson   Failures are like skinned knees -- painful, but superficial. •H. Ross Perot   I cannot give the formula for success, but I can give you the formula of failure -- which is try to please everybody. •Herbert B. Swope   Failure is a detour, not a dead-end street. •Zig Ziglar  A proud heart can survive a general failure because such a failure does not prick its pride.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Persuasion is better than force. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46412]]></link><description><![CDATA[Persuasion is better than force.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46412</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many commit the same crimes with a very different result.
