The high infant mortality rate on reservations is due to devastating poverty. Yet the state has not passed any laws in the last several years that would boost any of the health or education programs within the reservation community. As for tribal sovereignty, the only time the state wants to recognize it is when it benefits the state, as in this instance when it allows Senator Napoli to opt out of an intelligent response.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31440</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Missionary zeal does not grow out of intellectual beliefs, nor out of theological arguments, but out of love.

If I do not love a person I am not moved to help him by proofs that he is in need; if I do love him, I wait for no proof of a special need to urge me to help him. Knowledge of Christ is so rich a treasure that the spirit of love must necessarily desire to impart it. The mere assurance that others have it not is sufficient proof of their need. This spirit of love throws aside intellectual arguments that they can do very well without it. But if this spirit is not present, a man is easily persuaded that to impart a knowledge of Christianity (for it is noteworthy that such men always speak of Christianity rather than of Christ) is not necessary -- nay, is superfluous expense of energy which might be better used in other ways.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7715</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We've been there on World Wars, it's time for World Party I. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45585]]></link><description><![CDATA[We've been there on World Wars, it's time for World Party I.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yes'm, old friends is always best, 'less you can catch a new one that's fit to make an old one ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16989]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yes'm, old friends is always best, 'less you can catch a new one that's fit to make an old one out of.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16989</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's been below average in a lot of places. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30682]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's been below average in a lot of places.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's all I could think to do, and after I did that, it let go.
