This Christian belief underlies a second basic democratic principle, which is, in governing themselves, people of a community -- in a town, a city, a state, a nation -- can, despite inevitable conflicts, press effectively toward the goal of justice and liberty for all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6192</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not so important to be serious as it is to be serious about the important things.
