But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.

He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43377</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Doctors are the same as lawyers; the only difference is that lawyers merely rob you, whereas doctors rob you and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12611]]></link><description><![CDATA[Doctors are the same as lawyers; the only difference is that lawyers merely rob you, whereas doctors rob you and kill you too.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12611</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All religions are founded on the fear of the many and the cleverness of the few. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53445]]></link><description><![CDATA[All religions are founded on the fear of the many and the cleverness of the few.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53445</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Honour all men.
