If it be no crime, both prudence and courage should engage us to rid ourselves at once of existence when it becomes a burden. It is the only way that we can then be useful to society, by setting an example which, if imitated, would preserve every one his chance for happiness in life, and would effectually free him from all danger or misery.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58240</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And binding nature fast in fate, Left free the human will. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61603]]></link><description><![CDATA[And binding nature fast in fate, Left free the human will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of John Calvin, renewer of the Church, 1564  In that obedience which we have shown to be due ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7812]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of John Calvin, renewer of the Church, 1564  In that obedience which we have shown to be due the authority of rulers, we are always to make this exception, indeed, to observe it as primary, that such obedience is never to lead us away from obedience to him, to whose decrees all their commands ought to yield, to whose majesty their scepters ought to be submitted. And how absurd would it be that in satisfying men you should incur the displeasure of him for whose sake you obey men themselves! The Lord, therefore, is the King of Kings, who, when he has opened his sacred mouth, must alone be heard, before all and above all men; next to him we are subject to those men who are in authority over us, but only in him. If they command anything against him, let it go unesteemed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some suffer from real misfortunes.

Although I must have Martha's hands, I have a Mary mind, And when I black the boots and shoes, Thy sandals, Lord, I find. I think of how they trod the earth, what time I scrub the floor: Accept this meditation, Lord, I haven't time for more. Warm all the kitchen with Thy love, and light it with Thy peace; Forgive me all my worrying, and make my grumbling cease. Thou who didst love to give men food, in room or by the sea, Accept this service that I do -- I do it unto Thee.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6520</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was surprised by the atmosphere in the stadium in Chicago.
