What other virtue can there be in fifty-one percent except the brute fact that fifty-one is more than forty-nine? The rule of fifty-one per cent is a convenience, it is for certain matters a satisfactory political device, it is for others the lesser of two evils, and for others it is acceptable because we do not know any less troublesome method of obtaining a political decision. But it may easily become an absurd tyranny if we regard it worshipfully, as though it were more than a political device. We have lost all sense of its true meaning when we imagine that the opinion of fifty-one per cent is in some high fashion the true opinion of the whole hundred per cent, or indulge in the sophistry that the rule of a majority is based upon the ultimate equality of man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My son's my worst critic. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41692]]></link><description><![CDATA[My son's my worst critic.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41692</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Government, obviously, cannot fill a child's emotional needs.

This is a mercy for the Christian; for when does sin ever occur in the community that he must not examine and blame himself for his own unfaithfulness in prayer and intercession, his lack of brotherly service, of fraternal reproof and encouragement -- indeed, for his own personal sin and spiritual laxity, by which he has done injury to himself, the fellowship, and the brethren? Since every sin of a member burdens and indicts the whole community, the congregation rejoices, in the midst of all the pain and the burden that the brother's sin inflicts, that it has the privilege of bearing and forgiving.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happy the man when he has not the defects of his qualities. [Fr., Heureux l'homme quand il n'a pas les ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15452]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happy the man when he has not the defects of his qualities. [Fr., Heureux l'homme quand il n'a pas les defauts de ses qualites.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15452</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wouldn't be surprised, once the benchmark number comes in, that we're going to be much closer to 2 percent ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34726]]></link><description><![CDATA[I wouldn't be surprised, once the benchmark number comes in, that we're going to be much closer to 2 percent than the current growth of 1.3 percent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34726</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By words the mind is winged. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4711]]></link><description><![CDATA[By words the mind is winged.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4711</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The why is plain as way to parish church. -As You Like It.
