A fine cold draught blew over the knoll. He thought of the woman. Now he would have given all he had or ever might have to hold her warm in his arms, both of them wrapped in one blanket, and sleep. All hopes of eternity and all gain from the past he would have given to have her there, to be wrapped warm with him in one blanket, and sleep, only sleep. It seemed the sleep with the woman in his arms was the only necessity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61890</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world needs anger.

The first: that the consciences of believers, in seeking assurance of their justification before God, should rise above and advance beyond the law, forgetting all law righteousness... The second part, dependent upon the first, is that consciences observe the law, not as if constrained by the necessity of the law, but that freed from the law's yoke they willingly obey God's will... The third part of Christian freedom lies in this: regarding outward things that are of themselves "indifferent", we are not bound before God by any religious obligation preventing us from sometimes using them and other times not using them, indifferently... Accordingly, it is perversely interpreted both by those who allege it as an excuse for their desires that they may abuse God's good gifts to their own lust and by those who think that freedom does not exist unless it is used before men, and consequently, in using it have no regard for weaker brethren... Nothing is plainer than this rule: that we should use our freedom if it results in the edification of our neighbor, but if it does not help our neighbor, then we should forego it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8074</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Toward no crimes have men shown themselves so cold- bloodedly cruel as in punishing differences of belief ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12590]]></link><description><![CDATA[Toward no crimes have men shown themselves so cold- bloodedly cruel as in punishing differences of belief]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tyrants' fears Decrease not, but grow faster than their years. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51461]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tyrants' fears Decrease not, but grow faster than their years.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gender equality is more than a goal in itself.
