Let the princes hear and be afraid. But we must, in the meantime, be very careful not to despise or violate that authority of magistrates, full of venerable majesty, which God has established by the weightiest decrees, even though it may reside with the most unworthy men, who defile it as much as they can with their own wickedness. For, if the correction of unbridled despotism is the Lord's to avenge, let us not at once think that it is entrusted to us, to whom no command has been given except to obey and suffer.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't try to buy at the bottom and sell at the top.

He had many, but His favourite was to their chivalry and valour. Often He underlines the difficulties of discipleship, warns us what it will cost, that it means risk and loss and sacrifice, and pulling hard against fierce currents; and then He turns and looks at us, with that honouring trust of His in us that sets the blood tingling and makes the cheeks flush with pride. That, He says quietly, is why I am so sure that you will come: you are too big to keep out of it! And, indeed, in His own day, it was only daring and adventurous spirits who would risk declaring for Him, as it is only daring and adventurous spirits still who have the pluck to try to follow so original and unpopular a Master in the real living-out of life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7449</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In this spacious isle I think there is not one But he hath heard some talk of Hood and Little ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57915]]></link><description><![CDATA[In this spacious isle I think there is not one But he hath heard some talk of Hood and Little John,  Of Tuck, the merry friar, which many a sermon made   In praise of Robin Hood, his outlaws, and their trade.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57915</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Quality is a direct experience independent of and prior to intellectual abstractions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52644]]></link><description><![CDATA[Quality is a direct experience independent of and prior to intellectual abstractions.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52644</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Make no judgements where you have no compassion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9179]]></link><description><![CDATA[Make no judgements where you have no compassion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9179</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men seldom make passes At girls who wear glasses. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17482]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men seldom make passes At girls who wear glasses.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17482</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some folks are wise and some are otherwise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64216]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some folks are wise and some are otherwise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm a passionate believer in the inherent creativity possessed by all people and our inherent ability--if it's not clouded by ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1611]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm a passionate believer in the inherent creativity possessed by all people and our inherent ability--if it's not clouded by convention--to appreciate authentic beauty in all forms, whether we like it or not.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1611</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the missionaries came to Africa they had the Bible and we had the land.
