And where the unification has merely brought about an artificial or imposed unity, its irksomeness has led through discord to disruption.Vitality springs from diversity- which makes for real progress so long as there is mutual toleration, based on the recognition that worse may come from an attempt to suppress differences than from acceptance of them. For this reason, the kind of peace that makes progress possible is best assured by the mutual checks created by a balance of forces- alike in the sphere of internal politics and of international relations.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Patience is a minor form of despair, disguised as a virtue. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45744]]></link><description><![CDATA[Patience is a minor form of despair, disguised as a virtue.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45744</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I want to be very close to someone I respect and admire and have somebody who feels the same way ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1619]]></link><description><![CDATA[I want to be very close to someone I respect and admire and have somebody who feels the same way about me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In that fierce light which beats upon a throne. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54522]]></link><description><![CDATA[In that fierce light which beats upon a throne.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54522</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We read that we ought to forgive our enemies; but we do not read that we ought to forgive our ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16499]]></link><description><![CDATA[We read that we ought to forgive our enemies; but we do not read that we ought to forgive our friends.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16499</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those, who in quarrels interpose, Must often wipe a bloody nose. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48978]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those, who in quarrels interpose, Must often wipe a bloody nose.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48978</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thank God, I have done my duty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24121]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thank God, I have done my duty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For he as studious--of his ease. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58038]]></link><description><![CDATA[For he as studious--of his ease.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58038</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have been on this team for four years and this is the first time we have beaten Fallbrook.
