You may remember, when I was talking about sexual morality, I warned you that the centre of Christian morals did not lie there. Well, now we have come to the centre. According to Christian teachers, the essential vice, the utmost evil, is Pride. Unchastity, greed, drunkenness, and all that, are mere flea-bites in comparison: it was through Pride that the devil became the devil: Pride leads to every other vice: it is the complete anti-God state of mind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8551</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19606]]></link><description><![CDATA[And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is base to filch a purse, daring to embezzle a million, but it is great beyond measure to steal ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18498]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is base to filch a purse, daring to embezzle a million, but it is great beyond measure to steal a crown.
