It is hard, under the pressure of haste, uneasiness, ill-temper, self-complacency, and conceit, to continue intending justice. Power corrupts; the "insolence of office" will creep in. We see it so clearly in our superiors; is it unlikely that our inferiors see it in us? How many of those who have been over us did not sometimes (perhaps often) need our forgiveness? Be sure that we likewise need the forgiveness of those that are under us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8526</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That which is everybody's business is nobody's business. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17915]]></link><description><![CDATA[That which is everybody's business is nobody's business.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17915</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes, struggles are exactly what we need in our life.

The truth is hardly less the loser because the inquisitor has altered his methods.
