Indeed, I tell you the truth, any object you have in your mind, however good, will be a barrier between you and the inmost Truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8487</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's flattering, but you start to wonder whether people that are becoming fans of all the bands that have taken ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32465]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's flattering, but you start to wonder whether people that are becoming fans of all the bands that have taken on that look know where it's coming from. I'm not saying we invented it -- we drew influence from the Damned and the Misfits -- but it wasn't very popular when we started doing it.

It is hard, under the pressure of haste, uneasiness, ill-temper, self-complacency, and conceit, to continue intending justice. Power corrupts; the "insolence of office" will creep in. We see it so clearly in our superiors; is it unlikely that our inferiors see it in us? How many of those who have been over us did not sometimes (perhaps often) need our forgiveness?
