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[The miser acquires, yet fears to use his gains. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42740]]></link><description><![CDATA[The miser acquires, yet fears to use his gains.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42740</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anger is one short letter of danger. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62843]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anger is one short letter of danger.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62843</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It doesn't take a majority to make a rebellion; it takes only a few determined leaders and a sound cause. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53162]]></link><description><![CDATA[It doesn't take a majority to make a rebellion; it takes only a few determined leaders and a sound cause.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only the spoon knows what is stirring in the pot. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1086]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only the spoon knows what is stirring in the pot.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1086</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48643]]></link><description><![CDATA[The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48643</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["If the law supposes that," said Mr. Bumble, "the law is an ass, a idiot." ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3105]]></link><description><![CDATA["If the law supposes that," said Mr. Bumble, "the law is an ass, a idiot."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3105</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sense of death is most in apprehension. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3919]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sense of death is most in apprehension.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3919</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The function of genius is to furnish cretins with ideas twenty years later. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41050]]></link><description><![CDATA[The function of genius is to furnish cretins with ideas twenty years later.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41050</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A lot of kids get caught in a gap.
