But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43377</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The way of the Creative works through change and transformation, so that each thing receives its true nature and destiny ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18751]]></link><description><![CDATA[The way of the Creative works through change and transformation, so that each thing receives its true nature and destiny and comes into permanent accord with the Great Harmony: this is what furthers and what perseveres.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each handicap is like a hurdle in a steeplechase, and when you ride up to it, if you throw your ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12354]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each handicap is like a hurdle in a steeplechase, and when you ride up to it, if you throw your heart over, the horse will go along, too.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be happy while y'er leevin, For y'er a lang time deid. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43279]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be happy while y'er leevin, For y'er a lang time deid.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43279</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you make a mistake, don't look back at it long.
