In the winter of 1824, there set in a great flood upon that town--the tide rose to an incredible height: the waves rushed in upon the houses, and everything was threatened with destruction. In the midst of this sublime and terrible storm, Dame Partington, who lived upon the beach, was seen at the door of her house with mop and pattens, trundling her mop, squeezing out the sea water, and vigorously pushing away the Atlantic Ocean. The Atlantic was roused. Mrs. Partington's spirit was up; but I need not tell you that the contest was unequal. The Atlantic Ocean beat Mrs. Partington. She was excellent at a slop or a puddle, but she should not have meddled with a tempest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I know.

The term fast has no meaning apart from the term slow. In addition such terms have no meaning even when used together, except when confined to a very particular situation... most of our language about the organization and objective's of government is made up of such polar terms. Justice and injustice are typical. A reformer who wants to abolish injustice and create a world in which nothing but justice prevails is like a man who wants to make everything up. Such a man might feel that if he took the lowest in the world and carried it up to the highest point and kept on doing this, everything would eventually become up. This would certainly move a great many objects and create an enormous amount of activity. It might or might not be useful, according to the standards which we apply. However it would never result in the abolishment of down.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44145</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You kick against the goad. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51760]]></link><description><![CDATA[You kick against the goad.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51760</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All of us who served in one war or another know very well that all wars are the glory and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61192]]></link><description><![CDATA[All of us who served in one war or another know very well that all wars are the glory and the agony of the young.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61192</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing fails like success because we don't learn from it.
