Neurontin, for example, was initially approved only for epilepsy. But, after a slow start, it grew to become a $US2.3 billion ($3 billion today) blockbuster for its owner, Pfizer, in 2003.] About 80 per cent of the prescriptions were for unapproved uses - conditions like bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, insomnia, restless legs syndrome, hot flashes, migraines and tension headaches, ... In fact, Neurontin has become a sort of all-purpose restorative for chronic discomfort of almost any type - yet there is almost no good published evidence that it works.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41454</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ambition can creep as well as soar. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65444]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ambition can creep as well as soar.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65444</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If by saying that all men are born equal, you mean that they are equally born, it is true, but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12213]]></link><description><![CDATA[If by saying that all men are born equal, you mean that they are equally born, it is true, but true in no other sense; birth, talent, labor, virtue, and providence, are forever making differences.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Right now the only thing that will beat us is ourselves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37345]]></link><description><![CDATA[Right now the only thing that will beat us is ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37345</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We can more easily endure that which shames than that which vexes us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50898]]></link><description><![CDATA[We can more easily endure that which shames than that which vexes us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50898</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport.
