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[I give not gold for mere expectations. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51741]]></link><description><![CDATA[I give not gold for mere expectations.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51741</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We anticipate that people will need immediate housing, a safe place.

But the little mark on the soul may be much the same in both. Each has done something to himself which, unless he repents, will make it harder for him to keep out of the rage the next time he is tempted, and will make the rage worse when he does fall into it. Each of them, if he seriously turns to God, can have that twist in the central man straightened out again: each is, in the long run, doomed if he will not.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8554</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[...the only means to well-being is to increase the quantity of products.
