Therefore trust not too much to thine own opinion, but be ready also to hear the opinion of others. Though thine own opinion be good, yet if for the love of God thou foregoest it, and followest that of another, thou shalt the more profit thereby.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8034</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are confronted by a first danger, the destructiveness of applied atomic energy.
