He must cease to be George, Hans, Ivan or Tadao- a human atom with an existence bounded by birth and death. The most drastic way to achieve this end is by complete assimilation of the individual into a collective body. The fully assimilated individual does not see himself and others as human beings. When asked who he is, his automatic response is that he is a German, a Russian, a Japanese, a Christian, a Moslem, a member of a certain tribe or family. He has no purpose, worth and destiny apart from his collective body; and as long as that body lives he cannot really die.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is necessary; therefore, it is possible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21324]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is necessary; therefore, it is possible.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What exile from his country is able to escape from himself? [Lat., Patriae quis exul se quoque fugit.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25963]]></link><description><![CDATA[What exile from his country is able to escape from himself? [Lat., Patriae quis exul se quoque fugit.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25963</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The object and practice of liberty lies in the limitation of governmental power. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47520]]></link><description><![CDATA[The object and practice of liberty lies in the limitation of governmental power.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47520</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We wanted to take advantage of our mismatches.

But this inward work of God, though never ceasing or altering, is yet always and only hindered by the activity of our own nature and faculties, by bad men through their obedience to earthly passions and by good men through their striving to be good in their own way, by their natural strength and a multiplicity of holy labours and contrivances. Both these sorts of people obstruct the work of God upon their souls. For we can cooperate with God no other way than by submitting to the work of God, and seeking, and leaving ourselves to it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6951</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The stone that the builder refused, will always be the head cornerstone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30321]]></link><description><![CDATA[The stone that the builder refused, will always be the head cornerstone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30321</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have no trouble with my enemies.
