For to be vain, or proud, or covetous, or ambitious, in the common course of our business, is as contrary to these holy tempers of Christianity as cheating and dishonesty. If a glutton were to say, in excuse of his gluttony, that he only eats such things as it is lawful to eat, he would make as good an excuse for himself as the greedy, covetous, ambitious tradesman that would say that he only deals in lawful business. For, as a Christian is not only required to be honest, but to be of a Christian spirit, and make his life an exercise of humility, repentance, and heavenly affection, so all tempers that are contrary to these are as contrary to Christianity as cheating is contrary to honesty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7230</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All earthly delights are sweeter in expectation than in enjoyment; but all spiritual pleasures more in fruition than in expectation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57411]]></link><description><![CDATA[All earthly delights are sweeter in expectation than in enjoyment; but all spiritual pleasures more in fruition than in expectation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57411</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59669]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59669</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A line is a dot that went for a walk. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17063]]></link><description><![CDATA[A line is a dot that went for a walk.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17063</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life yields only to the conqueror.

But too often, instead of being the radical, standing against the shifting sands of relativism, he subsides into merely maintaing the status quo. If it is true that evil is evil, that God hates it to the point of the cross, and that there is a moral law fixed in what God is in Himself, then Christians should be the first into the field against what is wrong.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6864</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trifles make perfection--and perfection is no trifle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59705]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trifles make perfection--and perfection is no trifle.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59705</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No Alchymy to saving. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49646]]></link><description><![CDATA[No Alchymy to saving.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49646</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The inner censor of the mind of the true believer completes the work of the public censor; his self-discipline is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47144]]></link><description><![CDATA[The inner censor of the mind of the true believer completes the work of the public censor; his self-discipline is as tyrannical as the obedience imposed by the regime; he terrorizes his own conscience into submission; he carries his private Iron Curtain inside his skull, to protect his illusions against the intrusion of reality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47144</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A timid person is frightened before a danger, a coward during the time, and a courageous person afterward. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10516]]></link><description><![CDATA[A timid person is frightened before a danger, a coward during the time, and a courageous person afterward.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10516</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a way of life, not just a job.
