But the NFL did a survey two years ago where they found out the people who play fantasy football actually are their season-ticket holders. So now we've turned a corner from, 'Is this gambling?' to the realization that, 'Hey, this a fun hobby played by a lot of our fans.' And for the most part, it's bragging rights -- not money -- that people are after in fantasy football.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36060</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more you know the less you need to say. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56317]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more you know the less you need to say.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All perception of truth is the detection of an analogy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46094]]></link><description><![CDATA[All perception of truth is the detection of an analogy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Society is like air; very high up, it is sublimated--too low down, a perfect choke-damp. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56780]]></link><description><![CDATA[Society is like air; very high up, it is sublimated--too low down, a perfect choke-damp.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56780</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's a one-eyed yellow idol to the north of Khatmandu, There's a little marble cross below the town,  There's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17751]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's a one-eyed yellow idol to the north of Khatmandu, There's a little marble cross below the town,  There's a broken-hearted woman tends the grave of Mad Carew,   And the yellow god forever gazes down.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God helps him who strives hard. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19159]]></link><description><![CDATA[God helps him who strives hard.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19159</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's obviously a ton of money. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36027]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's obviously a ton of money.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36027</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was overwhelmed not only with his story but by the way he told it.

Some were mountainous; some lay in long, monotonous rows like, the basalt precipices hanging over desert canons. Such was the background of the wonderful, cruel, enchanting, bewildering, fatal, great city. But into this background were cut myriads of brilliant parallelograms and circles and squares through which glowed many colored lights. And out of the violet and purple depths ascended like the city's soul, sound and odors and thrills that make up the civic body. There arose the breath of gaiety unrestrained, of love, of hate, of all the passions that man can know. There below him lay all things, good or bad, that can be brought from the four corners of the earth to instruct, please, thrill, enrich, elevate, cast down, nurture or kill. Thus the flavor of it came up to him and went into his blood.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The violence done us by others is often less painful than that which we do to ourselves ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60662]]></link><description><![CDATA[The violence done us by others is often less painful than that which we do to ourselves]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60662</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So shall you hear Of carnal, bloody, and unnatural acts,  Of accidental judgments, casual slaughters,   Of deaths ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14172]]></link><description><![CDATA[So shall you hear Of carnal, bloody, and unnatural acts,  Of accidental judgments, casual slaughters,   Of deaths put on by cunning and forced cause,    And, in this upshot, purposes mistook     Fall'n on th' inventors' heads.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14172</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no faculty of the human soul so persistent and universal as that of hatred. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18824]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no faculty of the human soul so persistent and universal as that of hatred.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18824</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Discourse, the sweeter banquet of the mind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10095]]></link><description><![CDATA[Discourse, the sweeter banquet of the mind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10095</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They're an unselfish group willing to do whatever it takes to win. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33680]]></link><description><![CDATA[They're an unselfish group willing to do whatever it takes to win.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33680</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature does not loathe virtue: it is unaware of its existence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60809]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nature does not loathe virtue: it is unaware of its existence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60809</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The swiftness of time is infinite, which is the more evident to those who look back on what has passed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51639]]></link><description><![CDATA[The swiftness of time is infinite, which is the more evident to those who look back on what has passed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51639</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Judge not a man by his clothes, but by his wife's clothes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2833]]></link><description><![CDATA[Judge not a man by his clothes, but by his wife's clothes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2833</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Idleness is the parent of all psychology ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20318]]></link><description><![CDATA[Idleness is the parent of all psychology]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20318</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9721]]></link><description><![CDATA[Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9721</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Moderation is the inseparable companion of wisdom, but with it genius has not even a nodding acquaintance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42891]]></link><description><![CDATA[Moderation is the inseparable companion of wisdom, but with it genius has not even a nodding acquaintance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Youth is in danger until it learns to look upon debts as furies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11506]]></link><description><![CDATA[Youth is in danger until it learns to look upon debts as furies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Breed up a crow and he'll pick out your eyes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50972]]></link><description><![CDATA[Breed up a crow and he'll pick out your eyes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50972</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God of pity and love, return to this earth.
