That’s what we get paid for. I wasn’t surprised that Casey won the pole. I think if Sterling had gone out earlier he would have had a real shot to win the pole.Our teams have had some struggles this year. Some of the pain has been self-inflicted, and some of the things we just couldn’t help. It’d be great to win here today. In a way, it’s just another race, but it’s a big deal to win Daytona and a big deal to win Indy. Really, it’s a big deal to win anywhere. It pays the same amount of points, but the money is a little bit different.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52910</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My father was an eminent button-maker at Birmingham, . . . but I had a soul above buttons. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57284]]></link><description><![CDATA[My father was an eminent button-maker at Birmingham, . . . but I had a soul above buttons.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57284</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beggars must be no choosers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3920]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beggars must be no choosers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3920</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was a huge play for me because I really owe a lot to the team by accepting me coming ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29724]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was a huge play for me because I really owe a lot to the team by accepting me coming straight from junior college and just looking at me as a leader.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29724</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For well-dowered wife, credit, friends, birth and beauty, all-powerful money gives them all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50222]]></link><description><![CDATA[For well-dowered wife, credit, friends, birth and beauty, all-powerful money gives them all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People had expected everyone to miss the quarter so it's not surprising that they missed.

In my view, that means to speak on the one hand metaphysically, and on the other individualistically. Neither of these is relevant to the Bible message or to the man of today. Is it not true to say that individualistic concern for personal salvation has almost completely left us all? Are we not really under the impression that there are more important things than bothering about such a matter? (Perhaps not more important than the matter itself, but more than bothering about it). I know it sounds pretty monstrous to say that. But is it not, at bottom, even Biblical?... It is not with the next world that we are concerned, but with this world as created and preserved and set subject to laws and atoned for and made new. What is above the world is, in the Gospel, intended to exist for this world -- I mean that not in the anthropocentric sense of liberal, pietistic, ethical theology, but in the Bible sense of the creation and of the incarnation, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everyone needs to stop saying 'I'm a Republican' or 'I'm a Democrat' and just be good Christians.
