Romanticizing or lionizing as "individualistic" those people who disregard social cues and inducements increases the danger of head-on collisions with inherent social limits. Decrying various forms of social disapproval is in effect narrowing the warning strip.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56821</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Remember, son, many a good story has been ruined by over-verification. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23365]]></link><description><![CDATA[Remember, son, many a good story has been ruined by over-verification.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To hear complaints with patience, even when complaints are vain, is one of the duties of friendship. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63266]]></link><description><![CDATA[To hear complaints with patience, even when complaints are vain, is one of the duties of friendship.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Treading softly like a thief, Lest the harsh shingle should grate underfoot,  And feeling all along the garden wall. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51722]]></link><description><![CDATA[Treading softly like a thief, Lest the harsh shingle should grate underfoot,  And feeling all along the garden wall.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51722</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Well, I must be patient; there is no fettering of authority. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3490]]></link><description><![CDATA[Well, I must be patient; there is no fettering of authority.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And lo and behold, people were amazed: Washington was amazed.
