Each part of Scripture, both open and dark, teaches meekness and charity; and therefore he that keeps meekness and charity has the true understanding and perfection of all Scripture. Therefore, no simple man of wit should be afraid to study in the text of Scripture. And no cleric should be proud of the true understanding of Scripture, because understanding of Scripture without charity that keeps God's commandments, makes a man deeper damned... and pride and covetousness of clerics is the cause of [the Church's] blindness and heresy, and deprives them of the true understanding of Scripture.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I came to Gotham, where I saw many who were fools, if not all. [Lat., Veni Gotham, ubi multos,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25450]]></link><description><![CDATA[I came to Gotham, where I saw many who were fools, if not all. [Lat., Veni Gotham, ubi multos,  Si non omnes, vidi stultos.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25450</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The public is wonderfully tolerant.
