They assembled on a certain day to carry out their purpose, and sharpened their horns for the contest. But one of them who was exceedingly old (for many a field had he plowed) thus spoke: These Butchers, it is true, slaughter us, but they do so with skillful hands, and with no unnecessary pain. If we get rid of them, we shall fall into the hands of unskillful operators, and thus suffer a double death: for you may be assured, that though all the Butchers should perish, yet will men never want beef. Do not be in a hurry to change one evil for another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1559</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love having a man in my life, and being his woman at the end of the day.

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 roots 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/6665</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man always remembers his first love with special tenderness, but after that he begins to bunch them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16049]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man always remembers his first love with special tenderness, but after that he begins to bunch them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16049</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The guilty is he who meditates a crime; the punishment is his who lays the plot. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18502]]></link><description><![CDATA[The guilty is he who meditates a crime; the punishment is his who lays the plot.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18502</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Deep in my heart I'm concealing things that I'm longing to say.
