In fact, I believe that this government effort is a fishing expedition that unnecessarily disrupts the normal business operations of resellers and the manufacturers that supply them. If the government thought something was really wrong, they wouldn't have cast such a wide net to go hunting. I think this is a classic example of prosecutorial overreach.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let a man set his heart only on doing the will of God and he is instantly free.

The trouble with steeling yourself against the harshness of reality is that the same steel that secures your life against being destroyed secures your life also against being opened up and transformed by the holy power that life itself comes from.
