And when they are wicked, the Humanitarian theory of punishment will put in their hands a finer instrument of tyranny than wickedness ever had before. For if crime and disease are to be regarded as the same thing, it follows that any state of mind which our masters choose to call 'disease' can be treated as crime, and compulsorily cured. It will be vain to plead that states of mind which displease the government need not always involve moral turpitude and do not therefore always deserve forfeiture of liberty. For our masters will not be using the concepts of Desert and Punishment but those of disease and cure. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never think that God's delays are God's denials. Hold on; hold fast; hold out.

A writer expresses himself in words that have been used before because they give his meaning better than he can give it himself, or because they are beautiful or witty, or because he expects them to touch a cord of association in his reader, or because he wishes to show that he is learned and well read. Quotations due to the last motive are invariably ill-advised; the discerning reader detects it and is contemptuous; the undiscerning is perhaps impressed, but even then is at the same time repelled, pretentious quotations being the surest road to tedium.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[Macys.com`s web designers and marketing managers also pay particular attention to using text and images that emphasize the latest colors ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39903]]></link><description><![CDATA[[Macys.com`s web designers and marketing managers also pay particular attention to using text and images that emphasize the latest colors and fashions--and to portraying shoppers in an elegant or appropriate environment that emphasizes their lifestyle.] We create a voice for the brand, ...

Tell Him your troubles, that He may comfort you; tell Him your joys, that He may sober them; tell Him your longings, that He may purify them; tell Him your dislikes, that He may help you conquer them; talk to Him of your temptations, that He may shield you from them: show Him the wounds of your heart, that He may heal them; lay bare your indifference to good, your depraved tastes for evil, your instability. Tell Him how self-love makes you unjust to others, how vanity tempts you to be insincere, how pride disguises you to yourself and others.  If you thus pour out all your weaknesses, needs, troubles, there will be no lack of what to say. You will never exhaust the subject. It is continually being renewed. People who have no secrets from each other never want for subjects of conversation. They do not weigh their words, for there is nothing to be held back; neither do they seek for something to say. They talk out of the abundance of the heart, without consideration they say just what they think. Blessed are they who attain to such familiar, unreserved intercourse with God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hard features every bungler can command: To draw true beauty shows a master's hand. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45417]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hard features every bungler can command: To draw true beauty shows a master's hand.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Saturday Night Live was fun, really really fun.
