Many grown-ups will obstinately persist, if only now and then, in composing small strings of sentences in their heads and achieving at least momentary logic. This probably cannot be prevented, but we have learned how to minimize the consequences by arranging that such grown-ups will be unable to pursue that logic very far. If they were at home in the technology of writing, there's no telling how much social disorder they would cause by thinking things out at length.Our schools have chosen to cut this danger off as close to the root as possible, thus taking measures to preclude not only the birth of thought but its conception. They give the pill to even the youngest children, but just to be on the safe side, they give it to everybody else, too, especially all would-be schoolteachers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52091</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two starving men cannot be twice as hungry as one; but two rascals can be ten times as vicious as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61542]]></link><description><![CDATA[Two starving men cannot be twice as hungry as one; but two rascals can be ten times as vicious as one.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61542</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An advantage of poverty, your relatives gain nothing by your death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53357]]></link><description><![CDATA[An advantage of poverty, your relatives gain nothing by your death.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53357</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The gloaming comes, the day is spent, The sun goes out of sight,  And painted is the occident  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59923]]></link><description><![CDATA[The gloaming comes, the day is spent, The sun goes out of sight,  And painted is the occident   With purple sanguine bright.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59923</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Things don't go wrong and break your heart so you can become bitter and give up.

The Christian's faith in Christ is trust in a Living Person, once crucified, dead, and buried, and now living forevermore. Call it, if you will, an assumption that ends as an assurance, or an experiment that ends as an experience, Christian faith is in fact a commitment that ends as a communion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6342</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Praise undeserved is scandal in disguise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48022]]></link><description><![CDATA[Praise undeserved is scandal in disguise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48022</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Remember that everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something and has lost something. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15519]]></link><description><![CDATA[Remember that everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something and has lost something.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What happens to a man is less significant than what happens within him. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22640]]></link><description><![CDATA[What happens to a man is less significant than what happens within him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thus, I steer my bark, and sail On even keel, with gentle gale. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43998]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thus, I steer my bark, and sail On even keel, with gentle gale.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43998</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's very simple, I just tell my sad story, and people weep. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32123]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's very simple, I just tell my sad story, and people weep.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32123</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The art and science of asking questions is the source of all knowledge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3300]]></link><description><![CDATA[The art and science of asking questions is the source of all knowledge.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3300</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wisdom is scar tissue in disguise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1458]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wisdom is scar tissue in disguise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1458</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All human things Of dearest value hang on slender strings. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62343]]></link><description><![CDATA[All human things Of dearest value hang on slender strings.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62343</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was sheer professionalism and inspiration and the fact that you really cannot have people marching into other people's territory ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19418]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was sheer professionalism and inspiration and the fact that you really cannot have people marching into other people's territory and staying there.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19418</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most heroic word in all languages is revolution. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46989]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most heroic word in all languages is revolution.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46989</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have been coming to Los Angeles since 1975 to perform. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34493]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have been coming to Los Angeles since 1975 to perform.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34493</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They continue to say the city is teetering on the brink of financial disaster.
