That is understood. But after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46915</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No scoundrel is so stupid as to not find a reason for his vile conduct. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3996]]></link><description><![CDATA[No scoundrel is so stupid as to not find a reason for his vile conduct.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the Mass the matters. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62299]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the Mass the matters.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62299</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is poorer than a truth expressed as it was thought.

It is here amongst the people, that the Church must worship and live its life. If it is faithful both to God and to its Gospel, it will be used to hold forth the Word of light to the conversion of those that see and hear.
