Without realizing it, he makes society rather than himself the agent of change. The power he finds in his victimization may lead him to collective action against society, but it also encourages passivity within the sphere of his personal life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52084</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The exchange failed to deal with systems problems twice because of excessive red tape.

For him shall endless prayer be made,  And princes throng to crown his head; His name, like sweet perfume, shall rise With every morning sacrifice. People and realms of every tongue Dwell on his love with sweetest song, And infant-voices shall proclaim Their early blessings on his name. Blessings abound where'er he reigns; The prisoners leap to lose their chains; The weary find eternal rest, And all the sons of want are blest. Let every creature rise and bring Honors peculiar to our King; Angels descend with songs again, And earth repeat the loud amen.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6228</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My dream is of a place and a time where America will once again be seen as the last best ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64649]]></link><description><![CDATA[My dream is of a place and a time where America will once again be seen as the last best hope of earth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64649</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Consider the misfortunes of others, and you will be the better able to bear your own. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50716]]></link><description><![CDATA[Consider the misfortunes of others, and you will be the better able to bear your own.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would rather be a one-term President and do what I believe is right than to be a two-term President ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60640]]></link><description><![CDATA[I would rather be a one-term President and do what I believe is right than to be a two-term President at the cost of seeing America become a second-rate power and to see this Nation accept the first defeat in its proud 190-year history.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never measure the height of a mountain until you have reached the top.

And the post 9/11 congressional resolution authorizing 'all necessary force' in fighting terrorism was made in clear reference to military intervention.
