Unfortunately, the popular effect of this scientific advance has been a belief, seemingly shared by many scientists, that the range of our ignorance is steadily diminishing and that we can therefore aim at more comprehensive and deliberate control of all human activities. It is for this reason that those intoxicated by the advance of knowledge so often become the enemies of freedom.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life isn't all beer and skittles; but beer and skittles or something better of the same sort, must form a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50406]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life isn't all beer and skittles; but beer and skittles or something better of the same sort, must form a good part of every Englishman's education.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50406</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Augustine, first Archbishop of Canterbury, 605  We must try to be at one and the same time ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6472]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Augustine, first Archbishop of Canterbury, 605  We must try to be at one and the same time for the Church and against the Church.

They become responsive to grandiose schemes, and will display unequaled steadfastness, formidable energies and a special fitness in the performance of tasks which would stump superior people. It seems paradoxical that defeat in dealing with the possible should embolden people to attempt the impossible, but a familiarity with the mentality of the weak reveals that what seems a path of daring is actually an easy way out: It is to escape the responsibility for failure that the weak so eagerly throw themselves into grandiose undertakings. For when we fail in attaining the impossible we are justified in attributing it to the magnitude of the task.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18381]]></link><description><![CDATA[But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18381</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where Young must torture his invention To flatter knaves, or lose his pension. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16178]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where Young must torture his invention To flatter knaves, or lose his pension.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16178</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The American people want to preserve their American heritage, and they have the quaint belief that public lands belong to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47019]]></link><description><![CDATA[The American people want to preserve their American heritage, and they have the quaint belief that public lands belong to them as much as to the people of the state where the lands are located.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47019</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The march of intellect. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22886]]></link><description><![CDATA[The march of intellect.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22886</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Avoid destructive thinking.
