How things really are --- and always will be --- is neither all-evil nor all-good but deficient, inconsistent, inferior. Principles invite us to do something about the morass of contradictions in which we function morally. Principles invite us to clean up our act; to become intolerant of moral laxity and compromise and cowardice and the turning away from what is upsetting: that secret gnawing of the heart that tells us that what we are doing is not right, and so counsels us that we'd be better off just not thinking about it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Yale University management professor in response to student Fred Smith's paper proposing reliable overnight delivery service: The concept is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5055]]></link><description><![CDATA[A Yale University management professor in response to student Fred Smith's paper proposing reliable overnight delivery service: The concept is interesting and well-formed, but in order to earn better than a 'C', the idea must be feasible.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5055</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The same principle leads us to neglect a man of merit that induces us to admire a fool. [Fr., Du ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27385]]></link><description><![CDATA[The same principle leads us to neglect a man of merit that induces us to admire a fool. [Fr., Du meme fonds dont on neglige un homme de merite l'on sait encore admirer un sot.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27385</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only actions give life strength; only moderation gives it charm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42870]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only actions give life strength; only moderation gives it charm.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42870</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[True enough, the country is calm.

Unfortunately, the popular effect of this scientific advance has been a belief, seemingly shared by many scientists, that the range of our ignorance is steadily diminishing and that we can therefore aim at more comprehensive and deliberate control of all human activities. It is for this reason that those intoxicated by the advance of knowledge so often become the enemies of freedom.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An entrepreneur assumes the risk and is dedicated and committed to the success of whatever he or she undertakes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13983]]></link><description><![CDATA[An entrepreneur assumes the risk and is dedicated and committed to the success of whatever he or she undertakes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13983</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The heart that has truly loved never forgets But as truly loves on to the close. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25816]]></link><description><![CDATA[The heart that has truly loved never forgets But as truly loves on to the close.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25816</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good fellowship and friendship are lasting, rational and manly pleasures. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65030]]></link><description><![CDATA[Good fellowship and friendship are lasting, rational and manly pleasures.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65030</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Courage is grace under pressure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10325]]></link><description><![CDATA[Courage is grace under pressure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10325</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing inevitable about the tensions between our two countries or on the Korean peninsula or in the region, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41269]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing inevitable about the tensions between our two countries or on the Korean peninsula or in the region,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The horn, the horn, the lusty horn Is not a thing to laugh to scorn. -As You Like It.

It is no mere subjective instinct, ... no blind outreach. If it met no response, no answer, it would soon be weeded out of the race. Prayer has stood the test of experience. In fact, the very desire to pray is in itself prophetic of a heavenly Friend. So this native need of the soul rose out of the divine origin of the soul, and it has steadily verified itself as a safe guide to reality. In the first instance it is not asking for anything, it is not petition; all it seeks is God Himself: Let me find Thee, let me know Thee, then I will ask of Thee.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6584</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Becoming a grandmother is wonderful.
