Enacting it doesn’t give them power. Enacting it gives them lives that are satisfying and meaningful to them. This is what you’ll find if you go among them. They’re not seething with discontent and rebellion, not incessantly wrangling over what should be allowed and what forbidden, not forever accusing each other of not living the right way, not living in terror of each other not going crazy because their lives seem empty and pointless, not having to stupefy themselves with drugs to get through the days, not having a new religion every week to give them something to hold on to, not forever searching for something to do or something to believe in that will make lives worth living. And – I repeat – this is not because they live close to nature or have no formal government or because they’re innately noble. This is simply because they’re enacting a story that works well for people – a story that worked well for three million years and that still works well where the Takers haven’t yet managed to stamp it out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A vice is a failure of desire. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60504]]></link><description><![CDATA[A vice is a failure of desire.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60504</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I stand for freedom of expression, doing what you believe in, and going after your dreams. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20722]]></link><description><![CDATA[I stand for freedom of expression, doing what you believe in, and going after your dreams.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20722</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where life is more terrible than death, it is then the truest valor to dare to live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11321]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where life is more terrible than death, it is then the truest valor to dare to live.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11321</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Try to keep order and security so that there will not be any negative side effects.

I need not now attempt to make precise these heresies, as they came to be called. It is necessary only to point out that in various ways all these heresies were simplifications. By means of them the revelation of God to men was made, or appeared to be made, less scandalous. On the other hand, the various clauses of the Creed were not formulated as a new simplification, or as an alternative-ism. They were nothing more than emphatic statements of the Biblical scandal, statements which brought into sharp antagonism the new simplification and the old, Scriptural, many-sided and vigorous truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If it stays at this level for about six months or so, you will see the prices of other products ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34735]]></link><description><![CDATA[If it stays at this level for about six months or so, you will see the prices of other products and services increase.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34735</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They look quite promising in the shop; and not entirely without hope when I get them back into my wardrobe. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2841]]></link><description><![CDATA[They look quite promising in the shop; and not entirely without hope when I get them back into my wardrobe.
