Some even wanted him to be king, a thought that GW found ludicrous: What astonishing changes a few years are capable of producing! I am told that even respectable characters speak of a monarchical form of government without horror. From thinking proceeds speaking, thence to acting is often but a single step. But how irrevocable and tremendous! What a triumph for the advocates of despotism to find that we are incapable of governing ourselves, and that systems founded on the basis of equal liberty are merely ideal & fallacious!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60291</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We should wage war not to win war, but to win peace. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60615]]></link><description><![CDATA[We should wage war not to win war, but to win peace.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Informal relationships are not mere minor interstitial supplements to the major institutions of society.

Charles Haddon Spurgeon August 4, 2000 Feast of John Vianney, Curè d'Ars, 1859   Prayer is not a way of making use of God; prayer is a way of offering ourselves to God in order that He should be able to make use of us. It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little. When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us; we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us; we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.   ... William Barclay, The Plain Man's Book of Prayers, Introduction  August 5, 2000 Feast of Oswald, King of Northumbria, Martyr, 642   Meanwhile, little people like you and me, if our prayers are sometimes granted, beyond all hope and probability, had better not draw hasty conclusions to our own advantage. If we were stronger, we might be less tenderly treated. If we were braver, we might be sent, with far less help, to defend far more desperate posts in the great battle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8539</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[These are cancer victims and survivors who are close to me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39933]]></link><description><![CDATA[These are cancer victims and survivors who are close to me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39933</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We wanted to show the breadth of his expertise as an artist, and how he impacted the preservation of Weir ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29135]]></link><description><![CDATA[We wanted to show the breadth of his expertise as an artist, and how he impacted the preservation of Weir Farm.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29135</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first, and whatever you hit call it the target. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46373]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first, and whatever you hit call it the target.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46373</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A joke is an epigram on the death of a feeling. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20121]]></link><description><![CDATA[A joke is an epigram on the death of a feeling.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So show a little inspiration/ show a little spark/ show the world a little act when you show it your ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57193]]></link><description><![CDATA[So show a little inspiration/ show a little spark/ show the world a little act when you show it your heart/ we've got two lives--one we're given,/ and the other one we make/ and the world won't stop/ and actions speak louder/ listen to your heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[SAP is the clear market leader in the U.S. Acquisitions won't be able to change that. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40616]]></link><description><![CDATA[SAP is the clear market leader in the U.S. Acquisitions won't be able to change that.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Communism is like Prohibition, it's a good idea but it won't work ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9081]]></link><description><![CDATA[Communism is like Prohibition, it's a good idea but it won't work]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9081</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In America any boy may become President and I suppose it's just one of the risks he takes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54290]]></link><description><![CDATA[In America any boy may become President and I suppose it's just one of the risks he takes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54290</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A lot of middle-class black people think that the Democrats have nothing new to say about race, that their ideas ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41808]]></link><description><![CDATA[A lot of middle-class black people think that the Democrats have nothing new to say about race, that their ideas are bankrupt, and that the party basically takes their loyalty for granted, ...
