What other virtue can there be in fifty-one percent except the brute fact that fifty-one is more than forty-nine? The rule of fifty-one per cent is a convenience, it is for certain matters a satisfactory political device, it is for others the lesser of two evils, and for others it is acceptable because we do not know any less troublesome method of obtaining a political decision. But it may easily become an absurd tyranny if we regard it worshipfully, as though it were more than a political device. We have lost all sense of its true meaning when we imagine that the opinion of fifty-one per cent is in some high fashion the true opinion of the whole hundred per cent, or indulge in the sophistry that the rule of a majority is based upon the ultimate equality of man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He will burne his house, to warme his hands. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49419]]></link><description><![CDATA[He will burne his house, to warme his hands.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49419</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Murder is born of love, and love attains the greatest intensity in murder ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43382]]></link><description><![CDATA[Murder is born of love, and love attains the greatest intensity in murder]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43382</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Action is the product of the qualities inherent in nature. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1424]]></link><description><![CDATA[Action is the product of the qualities inherent in nature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1424</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cheerful at morn he wakes from short repose, Breathes the keen air, and carols as he goes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5839]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cheerful at morn he wakes from short repose, Breathes the keen air, and carols as he goes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5839</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like a fair house, built on another man's ground. -The Merry Wives of Windsor.

First, that He was a Sabbath-breaker. Secondly, that He was "a gluttonous man and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners" -- or (to draw aside the veil of Elizabethan English that makes it sound so much more respectable) that He ate too heartily, drank too freely, and kept very disreputable company, including grafters of the lowest type and ladies who were no better than they should be. For nineteen and a half centuries, the Christian Churches have laboured, not without success, to remove this unfortunate impression made by their Lord and Master. They have hustled the Magdalens from the Communion-table, founded Total Abstinence Societies in the name of Him who made the water wine, and added improvements of their own, such as various bans and anathemas upon dancing and theatre-going. They have transferred the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday, and, feeling that the original commandment "Thou shalt not work" was rather half-hearted, have added to it the new commandment, "Thou shalt not play.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7289</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The appeal of cinema lies in the fear of death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8689]]></link><description><![CDATA[The appeal of cinema lies in the fear of death.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8689</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only difference between the saint and the sinner is that every saint has a past, and every sinner has ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56413]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only difference between the saint and the sinner is that every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56413</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are what we believe we are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53745]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are what we believe we are.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53745</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was a big-time win for College Park.
