We will have such-a-one, for he sings prettily; we will invite such-a-one to a ball, for he dances well; we will have such-a-one at supper, for he is always joking and laughing; we will ask another because he plays deep at all games, or because he can drink a great deal. These are all vilifying distinctions, mortifying preferences, and exclude all ideas of esteem and regard. Whoever is had (as it is called) in company for the sake of any one thing singly, is singly that thing, and will never be considered in any other light; consequently never respected, let his merits be what they will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some of these guys are getting old, and they pee a lot. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31047]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some of these guys are getting old, and they pee a lot.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An election tells how many of your supporters are alive, and a war tells how many are willing to be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13693]]></link><description><![CDATA[An election tells how many of your supporters are alive, and a war tells how many are willing to be dead]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13693</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is only because the majority opinion will always be opposed by some that our knowledge and understanding progress.

History shows this quite clearly. And under these conditions, neither religion nor morality can stop it.When, then, does plunder stop? It stops when it becomes more painful and more dangerous than labor.It is evident, then, that the proper purpose of law is to use the power of its collective force to stop this fatal tendency to plunder instead of to work. All the measures of the law should protect property and punish plunder.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47657</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61973]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61973</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Given a choice between two theories, take the one which is funnier. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6120]]></link><description><![CDATA[Given a choice between two theories, take the one which is funnier.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6120</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In our day the conventional element in literature is elaborately disguised by a law of copyright pretending that every work ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25326]]></link><description><![CDATA[In our day the conventional element in literature is elaborately disguised by a law of copyright pretending that every work of art is an invention distinctive enough to be patented.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25326</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perhaps, moreover, he whose genius appears deepest and truest excels his fellows in nothing save the knack of expression; he ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17320]]></link><description><![CDATA[Perhaps, moreover, he whose genius appears deepest and truest excels his fellows in nothing save the knack of expression; he throws out occasionally a lucky hint at truths of which every human soul is profoundly though unutterably conscious.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17320</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People are going to continue to drink.
