But, since we are concerned with an occurrence which is by hypothesis unique in certain relevant aspects, we are most unlikely to be able to give confident answers to them. [Paul M.] van Buren's remarks about biology and the twentieth century are nothing more than rhetoric or, at best, are simply empirical statements about his own psychology. The first century knew as well as the twentieth that dead bodies do not naturally come to life again, and no amount of twentieth-century knowledge about natural processes can tell us what may happen by supernatural means.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6212</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is come, I know not how, to be taken for granted, by many persons, that Christianity is not so ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8330]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is come, I know not how, to be taken for granted, by many persons, that Christianity is not so much as a subject of inquiry; but that it is, now at length, discovered to be fictitious. And accordingly they treat it as if, in the present age, this were an agreed point among all people of discernment; and nothing remained, but to set it up as a principal subject of mirth and ridicule.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8330</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As you make your bed, so you must lie in it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47235]]></link><description><![CDATA[As you make your bed, so you must lie in it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Ass and the Lapdog A man had an Ass, and a Maltese Lapdog, a very great beauty.

The Ass was left in a stable and had plenty of oats and hay to eat, just as any other Ass would. The Lapdog knew many tricks and was a great favorite with his master, who often fondled him and seldom went out to dine without bringing him home some tidbit to eat. The Ass, on the contrary, had much work to do in grinding the corn-mill and in carrying wood from the forest or burdens from the farm. He often lamented his own hard fate and contrasted it with the luxury and idleness of the Lapdog, till at last one day he broke his cords and halter, and galloped into his master's house, kicking up his heels without measure, and frisking and fawning as well as he could. He next tried to jump about his master as he had seen the Lapdog do, but he broke the table and smashed all the dishes upon it to atoms. He then attempted to lick his master, and jumped upon his back. The servants, hearing the strange hubbub and perceiving the danger of their master, quickly relieved him, and drove out the Ass to his stable with kicks and clubs and cuffs. The Ass, as he returned to his stall beaten nearly to death, thus lamented: I have brought it all on myself! Why could I not have been contented to labor with my companions, and not wish to be idle all the day like that useless little Lapdog!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1545</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is art that makes life, makes interest, makes importance and I know of no substitute whatever for the force ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16436]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is art that makes life, makes interest, makes importance and I know of no substitute whatever for the force and beauty of its process.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16436</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every night, most of the focus is on me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30257]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every night, most of the focus is on me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Competition is not only the basis of protection to the consumer, but is the incentive to progress. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9215]]></link><description><![CDATA[Competition is not only the basis of protection to the consumer, but is the incentive to progress.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I want to be clear.

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[Tobacco operating fundamentals sequentially strengthened from the first to the second quarter, and third-quarter performance generally retained that stronger momentum. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32930]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tobacco operating fundamentals sequentially strengthened from the first to the second quarter, and third-quarter performance generally retained that stronger momentum.
