Men in my platoon who had served time in Vietnam told me many stories—but none more chilling than the one from two helicopter pilots. They told me how they would shoot the friendlies on their way back from reconnaissance missions just so they could empty their ammunition before returning to base. The friendlies were South Vietnamese women and children, helpless victims in a war they did not understand. But to the American pilots, they were simply dots on the ground.Whitehead is a political conservative.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man travels the world in search of what he needs and returns home to find it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59570]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man travels the world in search of what he needs and returns home to find it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59570</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sin is whatever obscures the soul. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56400]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sin is whatever obscures the soul.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56400</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't need strength to let go of something.

For you must be well aware that if we make an outward show of conversion to God without giving Him our hearts, it is only a shadow and pretence of virtue, and no true conversion. Any man or woman who neglects to maintain inward vigilance, and only makes an outward show of holiness in dress, speech, and behavior, is a wretched creature. For they watch the doings of other people and criticize their faults, imagining themselves to be something when in reality they are nothing. In this way they deceive themselves. Be careful to avoid this, and devote yourself inwardly to His likeness by humility, charity, and other spiritual virtues. In this way you will be truly converted to God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6561</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two angels guide The path of man, both aged and yet young.  As angels are, ripening through endless years, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53093]]></link><description><![CDATA[Two angels guide The path of man, both aged and yet young.  As angels are, ripening through endless years,   On one he leans: some call her Memory,    And some Tradition; and her voice is sweet,     With deep mysterious accords: the other,      Floating above, holds down a lamp with streams       A light divine and searching on the earth,        Compelling eyes and footsteps.
