So, beware of single-tax proposals. The U.S. government blows more money than any single tax can generate. The key is to tax multiple bases, disparate in nature, and with simple flat rates. That is a system both fair and sustatinable.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58687</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In practice, probably member states, some of them if not all of them, will have to pass laws in national ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41584]]></link><description><![CDATA[In practice, probably member states, some of them if not all of them, will have to pass laws in national parliaments in order to move from one regime to the other and this can take a certain time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41584</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prevention is better than cure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48184]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prevention is better than cure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48184</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing more likely to start disagreement among people or countries than an agreement. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1917]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing more likely to start disagreement among people or countries than an agreement.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1917</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing so easy but that it becomes difficult when you do it reluctantly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44327]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing so easy but that it becomes difficult when you do it reluctantly.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44327</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tell your master that if there were as many devils at Worms as tiles on its roofs, I would enter. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12151]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tell your master that if there were as many devils at Worms as tiles on its roofs, I would enter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am convinced that the world is not a mere bog in which men and woman trample themselves in the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21424]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am convinced that the world is not a mere bog in which men and woman trample themselves in the mire and die.

Dr. (Thomas) Chalmers tells us that he was brought up -- such was the effect of the current orthodoxy upon him -- in a certain distrust of good works. Some were certainly wanted, but not as being themselves salvation, only, as he puts it, as tokens of justification. It was a distinct stage in his religious progress when he realized that true justification sanctifies, and that the soul can and ought to abandon itself spontaneously and joyfully to do the good that it delights in. The modern mind assumes what Dr. Chalmers painfully discovered. An atonement that does not regenerate, it truly holds, is not an atonement in which men can be asked to believe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you truly give up trying to be whole throughothers, you end up receiving what you always wanted from others. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21781]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you truly give up trying to be whole throughothers, you end up receiving what you always wanted from others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21781</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When superstition is allowed to perform the task of old age in dulling the human temperament, we can say goodbye ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27944]]></link><description><![CDATA[When superstition is allowed to perform the task of old age in dulling the human temperament, we can say goodbye to all excellence in poetry, in painting, and in music.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27944</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no prettier fall then carnival ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5279]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no prettier fall then carnival]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5279</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Victory and defeat are each of the same price. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60620]]></link><description><![CDATA[Victory and defeat are each of the same price.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60620</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the first time in my life I feel important.

And this often in all sincerity. But, at other times, we are not really much disturbed about it; or, at least, not nearly so much as our heaped-up language would imply. What we imagine that we are achieving through this unreality I do not know. We shall not fool the All-wise; nor induce Him to believe that we are anything other, or better, than we actually are! Were it not saner to tell Him the truth, exactly as it is -- not that we are overwhelmed with sorrow for our sinfulness, if it is not so; but rather this, that, to all our other sinfulness, we have added this last and crowning sinfulness, that we are not much worried about it, or, at least, not nearly as much as we ought to be. Be pleased, in pity, to grant us such measure of sorrow for our failures as will lead us to a true repentance; and, through that, to a new way of life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8001</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For I can raise no money by vile means. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64573]]></link><description><![CDATA[For I can raise no money by vile means.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64573</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I truly believe that we can overcome any hurdle that lies before us and create the life we want to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35781]]></link><description><![CDATA[I truly believe that we can overcome any hurdle that lies before us and create the life we want to live.
