What other virtue can there be in fifty-one percent except the brute fact that fifty-one is more than forty-nine?

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://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35319]]></link><description><![CDATA[If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35319</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, it's a snug little island! A right little, tight little island! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23082]]></link><description><![CDATA[O, it's a snug little island! A right little, tight little island!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23082</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Time is a sort of river of passing events, and strong is its current; no sooner is a thing brought ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59355]]></link><description><![CDATA[Time is a sort of river of passing events, and strong is its current; no sooner is a thing brought to site thn it is swept by and another takes its place, and this too will be swept away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59355</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As much valour is to be found in feasting as in fighting, and some of our city captains and carpet ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15588]]></link><description><![CDATA[As much valour is to be found in feasting as in fighting, and some of our city captains and carpet knights will make this good, and prove it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men act and women appear.
