He should be supported or opposed exactly to the degree which is warranted by his good conduct or bad conduct, his efficiency or inefficiency in rendering loyal, able, and disinterested service to the nation as a whole. Therefore it is absolutely necessary that there should be full liberty to tell the truth about his acts, and this means that it is exactly as necessary to blame him when he does wrong as to praise him when he does right. Any other attitude in an American citizen is both base and servile. To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public. Nothing but the truth should be spoken about him or any one else. But it is even more important to tell the truth, pleasant or unpleasant, about him than about any one else.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48150</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My evil genius Procrastination has whispered me to tarry 'til a more convenient season. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21890]]></link><description><![CDATA[My evil genius Procrastination has whispered me to tarry 'til a more convenient season.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21890</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not a black and white issue - it's not a question of whether we care or don't.

He has taken a cheerful view of the prospects of the race and of the future of human history, staying his soul upon the promise of further "evolution" of the human individual, the continuous upward progress of civilization, or perhaps the confident expectation of a completely revolutionized order of society -- a communist Utopia beyond the class struggle or something else of that same general kind. Where such hopes remain unchastened by the cold touch of reality, there is little prospect of the Christian Gospel recommending itself to men's minds, and any wordy defense of it is likely to be quite useless.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8157</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The big artist keeps an eye on nature and steals her tools. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3368]]></link><description><![CDATA[The big artist keeps an eye on nature and steals her tools.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3368</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who are compassionate when they should be tough will be tough when they should be compassionate. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23521]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who are compassionate when they should be tough will be tough when they should be compassionate.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23521</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We shall not cease from exploration and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started... ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14754]]></link><description><![CDATA[We shall not cease from exploration and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started... and know the place for the first time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14754</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more you read and observe about this Politics thing, you got to admit that each party is worse than ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46961]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more you read and observe about this Politics thing, you got to admit that each party is worse than the other.
