And hence it is that worse passions, or a worse degree of them are to be found in persons of great religious zeal than in others that made no pretenses to it. History also furnishes us with instances of persons of great piety and devotion who have fallen into great delusions and deceived both themselves and others. The occasion of their fall was this: ... They considered their whole nature as the subject of religion and divine graces; and therefore their religion was according to the workings of their whole nature, and the old man was as busy and as much delighted in it as the new.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I got caught kissing.

Yet if our world were truly Christian, the change might be a reason for rejoicing. We no longer need our families -- we are therefore free to love them with complete unselfishness. Now at last it is possible to honour our parents genuinely, because they no longer have the power to kill us if we don't. The old sort of honour was sometimes an ugly sham: the son who respects Father only out of fear of punishment is not much of a son, just as the Christian who worships God only out of fear of hell is precious little of a Christian. But the new sort of honour can be a beautiful and holy thing. There are many sweet and sane families bound together by love; there are plenty of experts who remind us that only love can make the modern family work at all. And one must admit that there are plenty of parents very willing to be honoured. The catch is that not so many of them are willing to be honourable.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7887</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[West played really well.

Hence it was firmly seated first on the great lines of communication across the empire, leading from its origin in Jerusalem to its imperial center in Rome. It had already struck root in Rome within little more than twenty years after the Crucifixion, and it had become really strong in the great city about thirty years after the Apostles began to look round and out from Jerusalem. This marvelous development was possible only because the seed of the new thought floated free on the main currents of communication, which were ever sweeping back and forward between the heart of the Empire and its outlying members. Paul, who mainly directed the great movement, threw himself boldly and confidently into the life of the time; he took the Empire as it was, accepted its political conformation and arrangement, and sought only to touch the spiritual and moral life of the people.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No work of art is worth the bones of a Pomeranian Grenadier. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3169]]></link><description><![CDATA[No work of art is worth the bones of a Pomeranian Grenadier.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3169</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To send light into the darkness of men's hearts - such is the duty of the artist. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3235]]></link><description><![CDATA[To send light into the darkness of men's hearts - such is the duty of the artist.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Luke is an incredibly talented player who can start on the right or center of midfield.
