It is the most humanitarian of all known bodies of laws before recent times. The laws about slavery, which envisage the liberation of Hebrew slaves after seven years, are a good example. But there are also laws protecting the poor: interest (always high in the ancient East) was prohibited, and again there was a moratorium after a term of years... Even strangers, who normally had very little protection in antiquity, except when they were citizens of a strong neighbouring state which might step in and protect them by force of arms, are exceptionally well cared for by Mosaic law.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6730</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gloriously drunk, obey the important call. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22917]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gloriously drunk, obey the important call.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22917</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I came upon a doctor who appeared in quite poor health.

Many grown-ups will obstinately persist, if only now and then, in composing small strings of sentences in their heads and achieving at least momentary logic. This probably cannot be prevented, but we have learned how to minimize the consequences by arranging that such grown-ups will be unable to pursue that logic very far. If they were at home in the technology of writing, there's no telling how much social disorder they would cause by thinking things out at length.Our schools have chosen to cut this danger off as close to the root as possible, thus taking measures to preclude not only the birth of thought but its conception. They give the pill to even the youngest children, but just to be on the safe side, they give it to everybody else, too, especially all would-be schoolteachers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52091</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who has a why to live can bear almost any how. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25031]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25031</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The aqueducts are off.
