He may hand down everything else, so long as it is material and not pertaining to his person, for it may be acquired and disposed of as property and may over a series of generations create considerable inequalities in wealth among the mem­bers of the commonwealt. But he may not prevent his sub­ordinates from raising themselves to his own level if they are able and entitled to do so by their talent, industry and good fortune. If this were not so, he would be allowed to practise coercion without himself being subject to coercive counter-measures from others, and would thus be more than their fellow-subject.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20786</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Absence makes the heart grow fonder, Isle of Beauty, Fare thee well! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/166]]></link><description><![CDATA[Absence makes the heart grow fonder, Isle of Beauty, Fare thee well!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/166</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's going to be a good game.

He was never for one moment of any day out of touch with God. He was speaking and listening to the Father all day long; and yet He, who was in such constant touch with God, felt the need, as well as the joy, of more prolonged and more quiet communion with Him...
