The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46926</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We trained hard - but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we were ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47340]]></link><description><![CDATA[We trained hard - but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we were reorganized.

Repeatedly, the light has shone forth in the darkness, held aloft by hands that perished in the destruction of the institution that failed. Christians tend to defend the institution of their own creation with tenacity. It is institutional Christianity that has often shackled the Church... Many of the missionary institutions of the Church are expendable. They should always be treated as expendable.  ... Leonard M. Outerbridge, The Lost Churches of China July 24, 1996 Commemoration of Thomas à Kempis, priest, spiritual writer, 1471  Men stand much upon the title of 'orthodox', by which is usually understood, not believing the doctrine of Christ or His apostles, but such opinions as are in vogue among such a party, such systems of divinity as have been compiled in haste by those whom we have in admiration; and whatever is not consonant to these little bodies of divinity, tho' possibly it agree well enough with the Word of God, is error and heresy; and whoever maintains it can hardly pass for a Christian among some angry and perverse people. I do not intend to plead for any error, but I would not have Christianity chiefly measured by matters of opinion. I know no such error and heresy as a wicked life... Of the two, I have more hopes of him that denies the divinity of Christ and lives otherwise soberly and righteously and godly in the world, than of the man who owns Christ to be the Son of God and lives like a child of the devil.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6899</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With these shreds They vented their complainings, which being answered  And a petition granted them, a strange one,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2925]]></link><description><![CDATA[With these shreds They vented their complainings, which being answered  And a petition granted them, a strange one,   To break the heart of generosity,    And make bold power look pale, they threw their caps     As they would hang them on the horns o' th' moon,      Shouting their emulation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2925</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wasn't thinking about the championship but was just focusing on the two triple axels. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41386]]></link><description><![CDATA[I wasn't thinking about the championship but was just focusing on the two triple axels.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41386</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Courage is grace under pressure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10325]]></link><description><![CDATA[Courage is grace under pressure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10325</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Public office is a public trust, the authority and opportunities of which must be used as absolutely as the public ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52509]]></link><description><![CDATA[Public office is a public trust, the authority and opportunities of which must be used as absolutely as the public moneys for the public benefit, and not for the purposes of any individual or party.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vice is its own reward.
