We Church people have become so prone to loud and abusive self-depreciation that the thing amounts to a disease... and though these doleful spirits are not altogether serious, the world is listening, and takes us, not unnaturally, at our own dismal and unflattering valuation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7548</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No one worth possessing can be quite possessed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25984]]></link><description><![CDATA[No one worth possessing can be quite possessed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25984</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two cannot fall out if one does not choose. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52684]]></link><description><![CDATA[Two cannot fall out if one does not choose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Well-timed silence hath more eloquence than speech. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57356]]></link><description><![CDATA[Well-timed silence hath more eloquence than speech.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57356</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good writers define reality; bad ones merely restate it.

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.
