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[I chose my wife, as she did her wedding gown, for qualities that would wear well ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61496]]></link><description><![CDATA[I chose my wife, as she did her wedding gown, for qualities that would wear well]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61496</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Capacity for joy Admits temptation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23417]]></link><description><![CDATA[Capacity for joy Admits temptation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Had the devil come to our first parents personally and unmasked, they would have more easily seen the deception. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11589]]></link><description><![CDATA[Had the devil come to our first parents personally and unmasked, they would have more easily seen the deception.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11589</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's powerful.
