Or recall the infinite pains that have been taken, down the centuries, to preserve minute orthodoxy in all points of mental belief while ugly evils flaunt along the streets and are accepted meekly as part of the makeup of things! Or recollect how easy it is to assume that we, ourselves, are Christian people. Why? Oh, well, just the usual reasons: we say our prayers, when we are not too sleepy; and we come to church, when there is nothing much to do; and so, of course, there is no doubt of it, although our tempers may remain uncurbed, and our characters are not the least like Jesus Christ's, nor growing any nearer it! Do we not need that solemn warning that Christ gives us when He tells us bluntly that many people lose their lives and souls, because they are always laying the emphasis and stress on the wrong points?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7814</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's a very tight balance in world supply and demand. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41243]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's a very tight balance in world supply and demand.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41243</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A woman is like a tea bag, you can not tell how strong she is until you put her in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61899]]></link><description><![CDATA[A woman is like a tea bag, you can not tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61899</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God puts rainbows in the clouds so that each of us- in the dreariest and most dreaded moments- can see ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42935]]></link><description><![CDATA[God puts rainbows in the clouds so that each of us- in the dreariest and most dreaded moments- can see a possibility of hope.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42935</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It must be so, for miracles are ceased And therefore we must needs admit the means  How things are ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27561]]></link><description><![CDATA[It must be so, for miracles are ceased And therefore we must needs admit the means  How things are perfected.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27561</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think complexity is mostly sort of crummy stuff that is there because it's too expensive to change the interface. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9375]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think complexity is mostly sort of crummy stuff that is there because it's too expensive to change the interface.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9375</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Exercising and eating a Mediterranean-style diet will improve your changes of staying healthy, regardless of your cholesterol, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38391]]></link><description><![CDATA[Exercising and eating a Mediterranean-style diet will improve your changes of staying healthy, regardless of your cholesterol,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Resolved, That the compact which exists between the North and the South is a covenant with death and an agreement ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56588]]></link><description><![CDATA[Resolved, That the compact which exists between the North and the South is a covenant with death and an agreement with hell; involving both parties in atrocious criminality, and should be immediately annulled.   - William Lloyd Garrison,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pleasure's couch is virtue's grave. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46726]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pleasure's couch is virtue's grave.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46726</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is difficult to tell how much men's minds are conciliated by a kind manner and gentle speech. [Lat., Sed ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23752]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is difficult to tell how much men's minds are conciliated by a kind manner and gentle speech. [Lat., Sed tamen difficile dictu est, quantopere conciliat animos hominum comitas affabilitasque sermonis.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23752</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As the situation has changed, we have been taking gradual steps towards the closure of the missions and submissions, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29815]]></link><description><![CDATA[As the situation has changed, we have been taking gradual steps towards the closure of the missions and submissions,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29815</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We felt like we had a good corral of running backs, so instead of running the (I-formation) and featuring one, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32765]]></link><description><![CDATA[We felt like we had a good corral of running backs, so instead of running the (I-formation) and featuring one, we wanted to feature more backs.
