The high infant mortality rate on reservations is due to devastating poverty. Yet the state has not passed any laws in the last several years that would boost any of the health or education programs within the reservation community. As for tribal sovereignty, the only time the state wants to recognize it is when it benefits the state, as in this instance when it allows Senator Napoli to opt out of an intelligent response.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31440</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life swings like a pendulum backward and forward between pain and boredom ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4715]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life swings like a pendulum backward and forward between pain and boredom]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4715</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't know how he could have played much better.

And Rome in ruin while Nero laughs and sings:  Ye actors of a drama, cruel and cold,  Your names are by-words in Love's temple now,  Your pomp and glory but a winding-sheet;  Then Christ came scorning regal power and gold  To wear warm blood-drops on a willing brow,  And we, in love, forever kiss His feet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6319</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The lunatic, the lover, and the poet Are of imagination all compact: One sees more devils than vast hell can ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55531]]></link><description><![CDATA[The lunatic, the lover, and the poet Are of imagination all compact: One sees more devils than vast hell can hold, That is, the madman: the lover, all as frantic, Sees Helen's beauty in a brow of Egypt: The poet's eye, in a fine frenzy rolling, Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven; And as imagination bodies forth The forms of things unknown, the poet's pen Turns them to shapes, and gives to airy nothing A local habitation and a name. Such tricks hath strong imagination, That if it would but apprehend some joy, It comprehends some bringer of that joy; Or in the night, imagining some fear, How easy is a bush supposed a bear! -A Midsummer Night's Dream.
