He may hand down everything else, so long as it is material and not pertaining to his person, for it may be acquired and disposed of as property and may over a series of generations create considerable inequalities in wealth among the mem­bers of the commonwealt. But he may not prevent his sub­ordinates from raising themselves to his own level if they are able and entitled to do so by their talent, industry and good fortune. If this were not so, he would be allowed to practise coercion without himself being subject to coercive counter-measures from others, and would thus be more than their fellow-subject.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20786</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In really good companies, you have to lead.

Over time, I came to see that waiting to discover which way the wind was blowing is an excellent way to learn how to be a follower.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22283</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When anger rises, think of the consequences ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2529]]></link><description><![CDATA[When anger rises, think of the consequences]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2529</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth?
