The country was only recently reunited, back in 1990. You have about 16 to 17 million people; you have about 50 million guns. It's basically a country that is pretty trigger happy. It's very generous, very hospitable to foreigners, but on the other hand, there's always that element of risk.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The law has no power over heroes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66530]]></link><description><![CDATA[The law has no power over heroes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66530</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most important things in life aren't things. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24810]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most important things in life aren't things.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God cannot alter the past, though historians can. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19550]]></link><description><![CDATA[God cannot alter the past, though historians can.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19550</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was the human spirit itself that failed at Paris.

It is no use passing judgments and making scapegoats of this or that individual statesman or group of statesmen. Idealists make a great mistake in not facing the real facts sincerely and resolutely. They believe in the power of the spirit, in the goodness which is at the heart of things, in the triumph which is in store for the great moral ideals of the race. But this great faith only too often leads to an optimism which is sadly and fatally at variance with actual results. It is the realist and not the idealist who is generally justified by events. We forget that the human spirit, the spirit of goodness and truth in the world, is still only an infant crying in the night, and that the struggle with darkness is as yet mostly an unequal struggle. . . . Paris proved this terrible truth once more. It was not Wilson who failed there, but humanity itself. It was not the statesmen that failed, so much as the spirit of the peoples behind them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12435]]></link><description><![CDATA[The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We only part to meet again. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45564]]></link><description><![CDATA[We only part to meet again.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best thing about dreams is that fleeting moment, when you are between asleep and awake, when you don't know ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12836]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best thing about dreams is that fleeting moment, when you are between asleep and awake, when you don't know the difference between reality and fantasy, when for just that one moment you feel with your entire soul that the dream is reality, and it really happened.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12836</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The craving for sympathy is the common boundary-line between joy and sorrow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58523]]></link><description><![CDATA[The craving for sympathy is the common boundary-line between joy and sorrow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58523</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was a really nice surprise, ...
