But however easy any work may be, it can not be well done without taking thought about it. And such people, instead of taking thought about their work, generally take thought about the morrow, in which no work can be done any more than in yesterday.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think they're all really, really coming around beautifully. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40066]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think they're all really, really coming around beautifully.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40066</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sex is like air; it's not important unless you aren't getting any ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55262]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sex is like air; it's not important unless you aren't getting any]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55262</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Generally, common sense is rare in the (higher) rank. [Lat., Rarus enim ferme sensus communis in illa  Fortuna.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55102]]></link><description><![CDATA[Generally, common sense is rare in the (higher) rank. [Lat., Rarus enim ferme sensus communis in illa  Fortuna.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55102</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: Decide what you want. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65574]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: Decide what you want.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A miniature like this would have been a love token.
