History shows this quite clearly. And under these conditions, neither religion nor morality can stop it.When, then, does plunder stop? It stops when it becomes more painful and more dangerous than labor.It is evident, then, that the proper purpose of law is to use the power of its collective force to stop this fatal tendency to plunder instead of to work. All the measures of the law should protect property and punish plunder.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47657</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whenever you find that you are on the side of the majority, it is time to reform. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26217]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whenever you find that you are on the side of the majority, it is time to reform.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26217</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is only one honest impulse at the bottom of Puritanism, and that is the impulse to punish the man ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20679]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is only one honest impulse at the bottom of Puritanism, and that is the impulse to punish the man with a superior capacity for happiness]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20679</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The library is the temple of learning, and learning has liberated more people than all the wars in history. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24752]]></link><description><![CDATA[The library is the temple of learning, and learning has liberated more people than all the wars in history.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24752</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It doesn't surprise me.

First, he gets to preview various animation themes. He chooses his favorite and takes a holographic RFID badge with a Philips ICODE chip. When he goes into the examination room, he waves the badge at the scanning equipment, and the walls and ceiling come to life with animations, accompanied by music and other sounds. It keeps him relaxed and it's a great way to give him instructions. When it's time for him to hold his breath, he sees a cartoon character holding his own breath!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38563</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A soft answer turneth away wrath. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48649]]></link><description><![CDATA[A soft answer turneth away wrath.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48649</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nobody can do it for you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1116]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nobody can do it for you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1116</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best way to fill time is to waste it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14576]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best way to fill time is to waste it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The spider's touch, how exquisitely fine! Feels at each thread, and lives along the line. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57374]]></link><description><![CDATA[The spider's touch, how exquisitely fine! Feels at each thread, and lives along the line.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57374</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Set a beggar on horse backe, they saie, and hee will neuer alight. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3923]]></link><description><![CDATA[Set a beggar on horse backe, they saie, and hee will neuer alight.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3923</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each day of our lives we make deposits in the memory banks of our children. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15166]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each day of our lives we make deposits in the memory banks of our children.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15166</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only great minds can afford a simple style. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15327]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only great minds can afford a simple style.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15327</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best executive is one who has sense enough to pick good people to do what he wants them to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26289]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best executive is one who has sense enough to pick good people to do what he wants them to do, and self-restraint enough to keep from meddling with them while they do it]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26289</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anywhere I go, no matter where he's at, I never had a chance to beat him before.

No doubt there are very good excuses for this lack of discipline. Many forward-thinking men will tell you that the Bible is not worth serious attention, that it is simple, trivial, and out-of-date; and so, even though you may hear the Bible read, read it yourselves, or even study it, the tension of your energy may be relaxed -- subtly relaxed. But is quite certain that a widespread relaxation of the tension of Biblical interpretation has disastrous effects. For there is no corruption that threatens a country so surely as the corruption or sentimentalizing of its religion; and there is no corruption of the Christian religion so swift as that which sets in when the Church loses its strict Biblical discipline.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7861</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Being alone never felt right. sometimes it felt good, but it never felt right. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65622]]></link><description><![CDATA[Being alone never felt right. sometimes it felt good, but it never felt right.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65622</guid></item></channel></rss>
