It involves the conceptions of authoritative examination, of unquestionable proof, of decisive judgment, of punitive power. Whatever the final issue may be, he who "convicts" another must place the truth of the case in a clear light before him, so that it must be seen and acknowledged as truth. He who then rejects the conclusion which the exposition involves, rejects it with his eyes open and at his peril. Truth seen as truth carries with it condemnation to all who refuse to welcome it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6666</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes it takes an expert to point out the obvious. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9919]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes it takes an expert to point out the obvious.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9919</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poetry is the synthesis of hyacinths and biscuits. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46798]]></link><description><![CDATA[Poetry is the synthesis of hyacinths and biscuits.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46798</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I may not lead the most dramatic life, but in my brain it's War and Peace everyday. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20135]]></link><description><![CDATA[I may not lead the most dramatic life, but in my brain it's War and Peace everyday.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20135</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For what avail the plough or sail, Or land or life, if freedom fail? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16717]]></link><description><![CDATA[For what avail the plough or sail, Or land or life, if freedom fail?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16717</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are under a Constitution, but the Constitution is what the judges say it is, and the judiciary is the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9912]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are under a Constitution, but the Constitution is what the judges say it is, and the judiciary is the safeguard of our liberty and of our property under the Constitution.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9912</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Give you a reason on compulsion!

For even they are sure that to live for nothing higher than oneself is to lose life; that life, to be called life, can be found only in serving something bigger than one's personal interests; something that crowds these out of mind and heart, till one forgets about them and lives wholly, and without exception, for that other, worthier thing... It is long since Aristotle told us that only barbarians have as their ideal the wish to live as they please, and to do what they like.
