Some even wanted him to be king, a thought that GW found ludicrous: What astonishing changes a few years are capable of producing! I am told that even respectable characters speak of a monarchical form of government without horror. From thinking proceeds speaking, thence to acting is often but a single step. But how irrevocable and tremendous! What a triumph for the advocates of despotism to find that we are incapable of governing ourselves, and that systems founded on the basis of equal liberty are merely ideal & fallacious!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60291</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Broad-based upon her people's will, And compassed by the inviolate sea. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54523]]></link><description><![CDATA[Broad-based upon her people's will, And compassed by the inviolate sea.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54523</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As the lone Angler, patient man, At Mewry-Water, or the Banne,  Leaves off, against his placid wish,   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16105]]></link><description><![CDATA[As the lone Angler, patient man, At Mewry-Water, or the Banne,  Leaves off, against his placid wish,   Impaling worms to torture fish.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16105</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If Broadway shows charge preview prices while the cast is in dress rehearsal, why should restaurants charge full price when ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54024]]></link><description><![CDATA[If Broadway shows charge preview prices while the cast is in dress rehearsal, why should restaurants charge full price when their dining room and kitchen staffs are still practicing?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54024</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Always forgive your enemies--nothing annoys them so much. -Oscar Wilde. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16553]]></link><description><![CDATA[Always forgive your enemies--nothing annoys them so much. -Oscar Wilde.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16553</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most of the people who will walk after me will be children, so make the beat keep time with short ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36290]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most of the people who will walk after me will be children, so make the beat keep time with short steps.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36290</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14820]]></link><description><![CDATA[In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14820</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How many have been frozen gored starved or blown apart by Hitler, LBJ, Genghis Khan, Churchill, or Bonaparte? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45987]]></link><description><![CDATA[How many have been frozen gored starved or blown apart by Hitler, LBJ, Genghis Khan, Churchill, or Bonaparte?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45987</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A humorist tells himself every morning, "I hope it's going to be a rough day."

It thus comes about that in practice it is regularly the theoretical collectivist who extols individual reason and demands that all forces of society be made subject to the direction of a single mastermind, while it is the individualist who recognizes the limitations of the powers of individual reason and consequently advocates freedom as a means for the fullest development of the powers of the interindividual process.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47393</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anxiety is the essential condition of intellectual and artistic creation ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2681]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anxiety is the essential condition of intellectual and artistic creation]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2681</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even the skeptics are convinced it works, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42468]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even the skeptics are convinced it works,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It feels good to know you've got this time to know you're going to be in the top 20.

Care gives latitude to another person and gets you past the dislikes and annoyances. Quite simply, caring sustains love. Doc Childre and Sara Paddison, HeartMath Discovery Program Are there certain friends you turn to when you have a problem or need to be listened to? Think about this: - Are they compassionate, understanding and nurturing? - Are they totally present, giving you their undivided attention? - Do they try to solve your problems for you or do they help you to get clarity so that you can solve your own problems? - Do they let you talk until you're done? Chances are the people you turn to for support and understanding are good listeners. You can develop these qualities as well and take them even deeper into "essence understanding" through mastering deep heart listening. James Allen In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, for in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. Frances Ward Weller -Sara Paddison.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A lot of pop music is about stealing pocket money from children. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36665]]></link><description><![CDATA[A lot of pop music is about stealing pocket money from children.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36665</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was the most exciting match of the day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42149]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was the most exciting match of the day.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those vices [luxury and neglect of decent manners] are vices of men, not of the times. [Lat., Hominum sunt ista ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60509]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those vices [luxury and neglect of decent manners] are vices of men, not of the times. [Lat., Hominum sunt ista [vitia], non temporum.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is bad luck to be superstitious. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27759]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is bad luck to be superstitious.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27759</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Being in a ship is being in a jail, with the chance of being drowned. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56175]]></link><description><![CDATA[Being in a ship is being in a jail, with the chance of being drowned.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56175</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where love rules, there is no will to power; and where power predominates, there love is lacking.
