He must cease to be George, Hans, Ivan or Tadao- a human atom with an existence bounded by birth and death. The most drastic way to achieve this end is by complete assimilation of the individual into a collective body. The fully assimilated individual does not see himself and others as human beings. When asked who he is, his automatic response is that he is a German, a Russian, a Japanese, a Christian, a Moslem, a member of a certain tribe or family. He has no purpose, worth and destiny apart from his collective body; and as long as that body lives he cannot really die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You purchase pain with all that joy can give, And die of nothing but a rage to live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45367]]></link><description><![CDATA[You purchase pain with all that joy can give, And die of nothing but a rage to live.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45367</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love of country is like love of woman--he loves her best who seeks to bestow on her the highest good. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45850]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love of country is like love of woman--he loves her best who seeks to bestow on her the highest good.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45850</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've always made a total effort, even when the odds seemed entirely against me.
