These are commanders who have deserted their troops, and there is no more serious crime in the law of war. The Army says they never leave their wounded. The Marines say they never leave even their dead. These men have left all the casualties and retreated behind a pious shield of public rectitude. They have left the real stuff of their reputation bleaching behind them in the sun in this country.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When a man brings his wife flowers for no reason, there's a reason. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20198]]></link><description><![CDATA[When a man brings his wife flowers for no reason, there's a reason.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20198</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But O yet more miserable! Myself my sepulchre, a moving grave. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42764]]></link><description><![CDATA[But O yet more miserable! Myself my sepulchre, a moving grave.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42764</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Big companies are global, and they want to integrate their systems because it is cheaper to work with a single ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30204]]></link><description><![CDATA[Big companies are global, and they want to integrate their systems because it is cheaper to work with a single telecommunications company around the world.

Melanctha was always being left when she was not leaving others. Melanctha Herbert always loved too hard and much too often. She was always full with mystery and subtle movements and denials and vague distrusts and complicated disillusions. Then Melanctha would be sudden and impulsive and unbounded in some faith, and then she would suffer and be strong in her repression. Melanctha Herbert was always seeking rest and quiet and always she could only find new ways to be in trouble.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12546</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66710]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66710</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are three secrets to managing.

This is what distinguishes it most vitally from democracy. In a despotism there is no organized opposition which can take over the power when the Administration in office has failed. All the eggs are in one basket. Everything is staked on one coterie of men. When the going is good, they move more quickly and efficiently than democracies, where the opposition has to be persuaded and conciliated. But when they lose, there are no reserves. There are no substitutes on the bench ready to go out on the field and carry the ball. That is why democracies with the habit of party government have outlived all other forms of government in the modern world. They have, as it were, at least two governments always at hand, and when one fails they have the other. They have diversified the risks of mortality, corruption, and stupidity which pervade all human affairs. They have remembered that the most beautifully impressive machine cannot run for very long unless there is available a complete supply of spare parts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47443</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here the two great interests Imperium et Libertas, res olim insociabiles (saith Tacitus), began to incounter each other. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46949]]></link><description><![CDATA[Here the two great interests Imperium et Libertas, res olim insociabiles (saith Tacitus), began to incounter each other.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46949</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anxiety in children is originally nothing other than an expression of the fact they are feeling the loss of the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2679]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anxiety in children is originally nothing other than an expression of the fact they are feeling the loss of the person they love]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2679</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Opportunity only knocks once ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45037]]></link><description><![CDATA[Opportunity only knocks once]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45037</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fire is next akin to smoke. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50858]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fire is next akin to smoke.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50858</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The service you do for others is the rent you pay for the time you spend on earth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57717]]></link><description><![CDATA[The service you do for others is the rent you pay for the time you spend on earth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57717</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Luck is a crossroad where preparation and opportunity meet ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48126]]></link><description><![CDATA[Luck is a crossroad where preparation and opportunity meet]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48126</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[a bundle of untruths ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40869]]></link><description><![CDATA[a bundle of untruths]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40869</guid></item></channel></rss>
