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[If eighty percent of your sales come from twenty percent of all of your items, just carry those twenty percent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27918]]></link><description><![CDATA[If eighty percent of your sales come from twenty percent of all of your items, just carry those twenty percent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Preach the Gospel at all times and when necessary use words. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14379]]></link><description><![CDATA[Preach the Gospel at all times and when necessary use words.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14379</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Andrew Altman full employment act. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29247]]></link><description><![CDATA[Andrew Altman full employment act.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The offspring of riches: Pride, vanity, ostentation, arrogance, tyranny ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3120]]></link><description><![CDATA[The offspring of riches: Pride, vanity, ostentation, arrogance, tyranny]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3120</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The political machine works because it is a united minority acting against a divided majority. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27540]]></link><description><![CDATA[The political machine works because it is a united minority acting against a divided majority.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27540</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everybody wants to eat at the government's table, but nobody wants to do the dishes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18044]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everybody wants to eat at the government's table, but nobody wants to do the dishes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18044</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're thrilled to have developed a game that appeals to massively multiplayer players, as well as fans of the original ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37709]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're thrilled to have developed a game that appeals to massively multiplayer players, as well as fans of the original pen-and-paper game.

Your first duty is to begin by prayer. Entreat the Lord to grant you, of His great mercy, the true understanding of His Word. There is no other interpreter of the Word of God than the Author of this Word, as He Himself has said, "They shall be all taught of God" (John 6:45). Hope for nothing from your own labors, from your own understanding: trust solely in God, and in the influence of His Spirit. Believe this on the word of a man who has experience.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8246</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vain-glorious men are the scorn of the wise, the admiration of fools, the idols of paradise, and the slaves of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60421]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vain-glorious men are the scorn of the wise, the admiration of fools, the idols of paradise, and the slaves of their own vaunts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60421</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The law's made to take care o' raskills. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24293]]></link><description><![CDATA[The law's made to take care o' raskills.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24293</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Praise from a friend, or censure from a foe, Are lost on hearers that our merits know. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48010]]></link><description><![CDATA[Praise from a friend, or censure from a foe, Are lost on hearers that our merits know.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48010</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who educate children well are more to be honored than parents, for these only gave life, those the art ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13597]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who educate children well are more to be honored than parents, for these only gave life, those the art of living well. -Aristotle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13597</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you don't change your beliefs, your life will be like this forever.

That question has searched religion for contraband goods, stripped it of old superstitions, forced it to change its categories of thought and methods of work, and in general has so cowed and scared religion that many modern-minded believers... instinctively throw up their hands at the mere whisper of it... When a prominent scientist comes out strongly for religion, all the churches thank Heaven and take courage, as though it were the highest possible compliment to God to have Eddington believe in Him. Science has become the arbiter of this generation's thought, until to call even a prophet and a seer 'scientific' is to cap the climax of praise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7695</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Israel is willing to take a risk in order to make progress in the peace process. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32598]]></link><description><![CDATA[Israel is willing to take a risk in order to make progress in the peace process.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32598</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Business more than any other occupation is a continual dealing with the future; it is a continual calculation, an instinctive ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5054]]></link><description><![CDATA[Business more than any other occupation is a continual dealing with the future; it is a continual calculation, an instinctive exercise in foresight.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5054</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where is the pride of Summer,--the green prime,-- The many, many leaves all twinkling?--three  On the mossed elm; three ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59682]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where is the pride of Summer,--the green prime,-- The many, many leaves all twinkling?--three  On the mossed elm; three on the naked lime   Trembling,--and one upon the old oak tree!    Where is the Dryad's immortality?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great, good, and just, could I but rate My grief with thy too rigid fate,  I'd weep the world ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18341]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great, good, and just, could I but rate My grief with thy too rigid fate,  I'd weep the world in such a strain   As it should deluge once again;    But since thy loud-tongued blood demands supplies     More from Briareus' hands than Argus' eyes,      I'll sing thy obsequies with trumpet sounds       And write thy epitaph in blood and wounds.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18341</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes in movies, I still have to be the hero, but it's not all that important to me anymore. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43359]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes in movies, I still have to be the hero, but it's not all that important to me anymore.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43359</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Friends are like television.
