But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43377</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's like Christmas.

It is to be something very different from the man of to-day. It is to have a spirit yet streaming from the waters of baptism; it is to believe in love, to believe in loveliness, to believe in belief; it is to be so little that the elves can reach to whisper in your ear; it is to turn pumpkins into coaches, and mice into horses, lowness into loftiness, and nothing into everything, for each child has its fairy godmother in its own soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20944</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A civilization in which there is not a continuous controversy about important issues is on the way to totalitarianism and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10068]]></link><description><![CDATA[A civilization in which there is not a continuous controversy about important issues is on the way to totalitarianism and death]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10068</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Real education must ultimately be limited to men who insist on knowing.

The hungry sheep, that crave the living Bread. Grow few, and lean, and feeble as can be, When fed not Gospel, but philosophy; Not Love's eternal story, no, not this, But apt allusion, keen analysis. Discourse well framed -- forgot as soon as heard -- Man's thin dilution of the living Word. O Preacher, leave the rhetorician's arts; Preach Christ, the Food of hungry human hearts; Hold fast to science, history, or creed, But preach the Answer to our human need, That in this place, at least, it may be said No hungry sheep looks up and is not fed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8323</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think I'll live long enough to shoot my age.
