And when they are wicked, the Humanitarian theory of punishment will put in their hands a finer instrument of tyranny than wickedness ever had before. For if crime and disease are to be regarded as the same thing, it follows that any state of mind which our masters choose to call 'disease' can be treated as crime, and compulsorily cured. It will be vain to plead that states of mind which displease the government need not always involve moral turpitude and do not therefore always deserve forfeiture of liberty. For our masters will not be using the concepts of Desert and Punishment but those of disease and cure. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great opportunities to help others seldom come, but small ones surround us daily. -Sally Koch. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55250]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great opportunities to help others seldom come, but small ones surround us daily. -Sally Koch.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55250</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Human beings are born into this little span of life of which the best thing is its friendship and intimacies, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16969]]></link><description><![CDATA[Human beings are born into this little span of life of which the best thing is its friendship and intimacies, and soon their places will know them no more, and yet they leave their friendships and intimacies with no cultivation, to grow as they will b.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16969</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success is a journey...not a destination. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22065]]></link><description><![CDATA[Success is a journey...not a destination.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22065</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Controversy is only dreaded by the advocates of error ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10067]]></link><description><![CDATA[Controversy is only dreaded by the advocates of error]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10067</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No adultery is bloodless. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20812]]></link><description><![CDATA[No adultery is bloodless.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whether in chains or in laurels, liberty knows nothing but victories. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60627]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whether in chains or in laurels, liberty knows nothing but victories.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[At the Old-Time Radio Convention, which expects 600 attendees this weekend, leaders have begun inviting television stars -- over the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29667]]></link><description><![CDATA[[At the Old-Time Radio Convention, which expects 600 attendees this weekend, leaders have begun inviting television stars -- over the objections of purists who argue that only radio performers should be welcome.] If it becomes 'Friends of Old-Time Television,' I'm out of there, ...
