The old man told him that he worshipped the fire only, and acknowledged no other God. At which answer Abraham grew so zealously angry, that he threw the old man out of his tent, and exposed him to all the evils of the night and an unguarded condition. When the old man was gone, God called to Abraham, and asked him where the stranger was. He replied, "I thrust him away, because he did not worship thee." God answered him, "I have suffered him these hundred years, though he dishonoured me; and wouldst thou not endure him one night?".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7290</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are dreaded by many then beware of many. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48607]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are dreaded by many then beware of many.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48607</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of All Souls  The antithesis between death and life is not so stark for the Christian as it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6419]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of All Souls  The antithesis between death and life is not so stark for the Christian as it is for the atheist. Life is a process of becoming, and the moment of death is the transition from one life to another. Thus it is possible for a Christian to succumb to his own kind of death-wish, to seek that extreme of other-worldliness to which the faith has always been liable, especially in periods of stress and uncertainty. There may appear a marked preoccupation with death and a rejection of all temporal things. To say that this world is in a fallen state and that not too much value must be set upon it, is very far from the Manichaean error of supposing it to be evil throughout. The Christian hope finds ambivalence in death: that which destroys, also redeems.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6419</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that owes nothing, if he makes not mouthes at us, is courteous. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49383]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that owes nothing, if he makes not mouthes at us, is courteous.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49383</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you have a talent, use it in every which way possible.

That God should be in a state of constant fury with the wicked seemed to them only right and proper, but that God should be kind towards those who were defying or disobeying His laws seemed to them a monstrous injustice. Yet I was but quoting the Son of God Himself, and I only comment here that the terrifying risks that God takes are part of His Nature.
