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[When you get too big a majority, you're immediately in trouble. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26215]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you get too big a majority, you're immediately in trouble.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He didn't hurt me.

But the things of the soul are far more momentous, and to be asked to deal with huge, unfathomable facts like the Cross in a few minutes, means that people are not really interested in these things. This is, of course, a snippety age, with a snippety press, and snippety novels. But must we preachers follow and be snippety, too?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7848</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the Jew that Shakespeare drew. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/430]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is the Jew that Shakespeare drew.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/430</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm not suggesting that the play is without fault; all of my plays are imperfect, I'm rather happy to say-it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34295]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm not suggesting that the play is without fault; all of my plays are imperfect, I'm rather happy to say-it leaves me something to do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34295</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People are unwilling to take positions.
