And when they are wicked, the Humanitarian theory of punishment will put in their hands a finer instrument of tyranny than wickedness ever had before. For if crime and disease are to be regarded as the same thing, it follows that any state of mind which our masters choose to call 'disease' can be treated as crime, and compulsorily cured. It will be vain to plead that states of mind which displease the government need not always involve moral turpitude and do not therefore always deserve forfeiture of liberty. For our masters will not be using the concepts of Desert and Punishment but those of disease and cure. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who is prudent and lies in wait for an enemy who is not, will be victorious. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63880]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who is prudent and lies in wait for an enemy who is not, will be victorious.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63880</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Revelation of God is not a book or a doctrine, but a living Person. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6678]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Revelation of God is not a book or a doctrine, but a living Person.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6678</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His voice no touch of harmony admits, Irregularly deep, and shrill by fits.  The two extremes appear like man ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60912]]></link><description><![CDATA[His voice no touch of harmony admits, Irregularly deep, and shrill by fits.  The two extremes appear like man and wife   Coupled together for the sake of strife.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60912</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously.
