Without the permission of the author of the work, who will be able to tell when personal use ends and piracy begins?

To break the basic laws of justice and decency is sin indeed. Man's freedom to honor principles is the moral dimension in his nature, and sin often appears as lawlessness. But sin has its root in something which is more than the will to break the law. The core of sin is our making ourselves the center of life, rather than accepting the holy God as the center. Lack of trust, self-love, pride, these are three ways in which Christians have expressed the real meaning of sin. But what sin does is to make the struggle with evil meaningless. When we refuse to hold our freedom in trust and reverence for God's will, there is nothing which can make the risk of life worth the pain of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blow, bugles of battle, the marches of peace; East, west, north, and south let the long quarrel cease;  Sing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8653]]></link><description><![CDATA[Blow, bugles of battle, the marches of peace; East, west, north, and south let the long quarrel cease;  Sing the song of great joy that the angels began,   Sing the glory to God and of good-will to man!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8653</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He was ready to do things the right way when he got out, but when young men are put in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42026]]></link><description><![CDATA[He was ready to do things the right way when he got out, but when young men are put in prison and then thrown back on the street and have no training for anything they go right back into the pit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42026</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To curb the machine and limit art to handicraft is a denial of opportunity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26166]]></link><description><![CDATA[To curb the machine and limit art to handicraft is a denial of opportunity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26166</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We triumph without glory when we conquer without danger. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11064]]></link><description><![CDATA[We triumph without glory when we conquer without danger.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11064</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bird That glads the night had cheer'd the listening groves with sweet complainings. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4250]]></link><description><![CDATA[The bird That glads the night had cheer'd the listening groves with sweet complainings.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4250</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you select a spinner on a (pitch) that helps spin, you expect a little bit more than that. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42700]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you select a spinner on a (pitch) that helps spin, you expect a little bit more than that.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42700</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All men are born free and equal, and have certain natural, essential, and unalienable rights. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54262]]></link><description><![CDATA[All men are born free and equal, and have certain natural, essential, and unalienable rights.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54262</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5892]]></link><description><![CDATA[Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5892</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Islam is a religion of success.

Jesus Christ, with a confidence that to the timid traditionalism of His time appeared blasphemous, asserted that He knew the Father and was prepared to let others into that knowledge. He did so, not by handing down a new tradition about God, but by making others sharers in His own attitude to God. This is what Paul means by "having the mind of Christ." It was this clear, unquestioning conviction that gave Paul his power as a missionary: but he expected it also in his converts. To them too "the world of knowledge" came "by the same Spirit". He prayed that God would give them a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him. Such knowledge is, as Paul freely grants, only partial, but, so far as it goes, it is real, personal knowledge. In friendship between men there is a mutual knowledge which is never complete or free from mystery: yet you can know with a certainty nothing could shake, that your friend is "not the man to do such a thing", or that such-and-such a thing that you have heard is "just like him." You have a real knowledge which gives you a criterion. Such is the knowledge the Christian has of his Father.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7845</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.rn ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64692]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.rn]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64692</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think chemistry will be a key ingredient.

Do not take up the vain excuse of your rawness of inexperience which you may imagine or assume. For sterile modesty is never pleasing, not that humility laudable which passes the bounds of reason. Attend to your work; drive out bashfulness by a sense of duty, and act as a master. But I am not sufficient for these things, you say. As if your offering were not accepted from what you have, and not from what you have not. Be prepared to answer for the single talent committed to your charge, and take no thought for the test. For he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
