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[We can look back at that and say the injury bug bit us a little, but that's why you have ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39948]]></link><description><![CDATA[We can look back at that and say the injury bug bit us a little, but that's why you have 15 guys on the team.

What heavy burdens from our bosoms take,  What parched ground refresh as with a shower! We kneel, and all around us seems to lower; We rise, and all, the distant and the near, Stands forth in sunny outline brave and clear; We kneel, how weak! we rise, how full of power! Why, therefore, should we do ourselves this wrong,  Or other, that we are not always strong, That we are ever overborne with care, That we should ever weak or heratless be, Anxious or troubled, when with us is prayer, And joy and strength and courage are with Thee!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6321</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Freedom is never letting your fears stop you from following your heart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46243]]></link><description><![CDATA[Freedom is never letting your fears stop you from following your heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46243</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It gets their confidence up for the season. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42024]]></link><description><![CDATA[It gets their confidence up for the season.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42024</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Baseball is a game between two teams of nine players each, under direction of a manager, played on an enclosed ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4615]]></link><description><![CDATA[Baseball is a game between two teams of nine players each, under direction of a manager, played on an enclosed field in accordance with these rules, under jurisdiction of one or more umpires.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The function of the imagination is not to make strange things settled, so much as to make settled things strange. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20534]]></link><description><![CDATA[The function of the imagination is not to make strange things settled, so much as to make settled things strange.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'd rather be able to face myself in the bathroom mirror than be rich and famous. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2291]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'd rather be able to face myself in the bathroom mirror than be rich and famous.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2291</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Records aren't what come to mind.

This is the one only band of union betwixt God and the creature... Here the necessity is absolute; nothing will do instead of this will; all contrivances of holiness, all forms of religious piety, signify nothing without this will to all goodness. For as the will to all goodness is the whole nature of God, so it must be the whole nature of every service of religion that can be acceptable to him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7069</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For everything you have missed, you have gained something else, and for everything you gain, you lose something else. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9274]]></link><description><![CDATA[For everything you have missed, you have gained something else, and for everything you gain, you lose something else.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9274</guid></item></channel></rss>
