This assumption is quite erroneous...The great masses of men, even in this inspired republic, are precisely where the mob was at the dawn of history.

From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,  Much pleasure, then from thee much more, must flow,  And soonest our best men with thee do go,  Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery. Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men, And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell,  And poppy, or charms, can make us sleep as well,  And better than thy stroke. Why swell'st thou then? One short sleep past, we wake eternally,  And Death shall be no more: Death, thou shalt die.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8096</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[History shows that there are no invincible armies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66635]]></link><description><![CDATA[History shows that there are no invincible armies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66635</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I met a fool i' the forest, A motley fool. -As You Like It.

That hope alone explains the Book, giving meaning and consistency to its story. Was it a chimera, an hallucination? According to the prophecy of Micah, the messianic Shepherd of Israel had to be born in Bethlehem. It is unthinkable that an heir to the throne of David could be born in Bethlehem now, and be also able to prove his legitimacy by documentary evidence. The event must clearly have taken place already, or Micah is a false prophet, a raiser of false hopes, along with the other writers in the Old Testament.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Companies like Texas Instruments, companies like Cisco Systems in enterprise networking.
