Being in the minority, he has no other choice. Failing this duty, he sinks into oblivion. Society, on the other hand, has no obligation toward the poet. A majority by definition, society thinks of itself as having other options than reading verses, no matter how well written. Its failure to do so results in its sinking to that level of locution at which society falls easy prey to a demagogue or a tyrant. This is society's own equivalent of oblivion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25369</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're ready.

Poetic simile was strictly limited to statements like: His mighty steed was fast as the wind, on a fairly calm day, say about Force Three, any loose talk about a beloved having a face that could launch a thousand ships would have to be backed by evidence that the object of desire did indeed own a very large seaport. Patrician Olaf II was eventually killed during an experiment conducted in the palace grounds to prove the disputed accuracy of the proverb The Pen is mightier than the Sword.In his memory it was decided that the proverb would from now on include the phrase: only if the Sword is very small and the Pen very sharp.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that dies without the company of good men puts not himselfe into a good way. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49333]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that dies without the company of good men puts not himselfe into a good way.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49333</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Right now, they're hitting the ball a little better than I thought they would.
