You find him desperately numerous in the civil service, in the official bureaus. To him government is something given as unconditionally, as absolutely as ocean or hill. He goes on winding the tape that he finds. His imagination has rarely extricated itself from under the administrative machine to gain any sense of what a human, temporary contraption the whole affair is. What he thinks is the heavens above him is nothing but the roof.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46252</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was an infantry officer in the Army from 1969 to 1971.

The friendlies were South Vietnamese women and children, helpless victims in a war they did not understand. But to the American pilots, they were simply dots on the ground.Whitehead is a political conservative.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who works his land will have abundant food. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4174]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who works his land will have abundant food.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4174</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We need to protect Iraq and the world against terrorists. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37412]]></link><description><![CDATA[We need to protect Iraq and the world against terrorists.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37412</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ther n' is no werkman whatever he be, That may both werken wel and hastily.  This wol be done ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62089]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ther n' is no werkman whatever he be, That may both werken wel and hastily.  This wol be done at leisure parfitly.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62089</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The hard part about being a head coach, especially when you have a program that's new, is getting the kids ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33160]]></link><description><![CDATA[The hard part about being a head coach, especially when you have a program that's new, is getting the kids to buy into the fact that you have a team.

Not fiends incarnate, but plain flesh and blood like us; quite ordinary men, decent and kindly souls enough, some of whom, no doubt, went to their homes that day from Calvary and took their children on their knees and loved them very genuinely. Only, they were a bit old fashioned in the make-up of their minds, had grown stiff and inelastic in their thinking, inhospitable to new notions -- surely a very minor sin at worst -- and some feared for their vested interests; and one, poor Pilate, had lost his temper with these impossible Jews in days gone by, and had received a curt warning from Rome that there must be no further bloodshed in Jerusalem, and here was a new trouble at the very worst of times in the whole year, with fanatics in tens of thousands come up for the Feast; and one wanted to save the world by quick-running machinery, and so put Christ into a situation where He could no longer dilly-dally but must do something vivid, dramatic, revolutionary. And the people? No need for us to bother being there at the decision between Jesus and Barabbas. We had the lined streets cheering for Him yesterday. And we have relatives to see, and messages from neighbours to deliver to their kindred. He will be all right; we needn't worry to be there. Such simple and plebian sins -- minds grown a trifle out of date, a little selfishness, some temper and its consequences, a bit of worldly wisdom, and an indifference that did nothing at all -- these brought about the shame of mankind, and the tragedy of history, and the blot upon our annals that will not rub out. And they are all of them within your heart and mine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sound, sound the clarion, fill the fife! To all the sensual world proclaim,  One crowded hour of glorious life ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17560]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sound, sound the clarion, fill the fife! To all the sensual world proclaim,  One crowded hour of glorious life   Is worth an age without a name.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A wise traveler never despises his own country. [It., Un viaggiatore prudente non disprezza mai il suo paese.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59618]]></link><description><![CDATA[A wise traveler never despises his own country. [It., Un viaggiatore prudente non disprezza mai il suo paese.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59618</guid></item></channel></rss>
