There had been days when he had been too hectoring or domineering -- so, at least, these impossible people had said, though he himself denied it still. At all events, protesting to Rome, they had won the Emperor's ear, and humbled their governor. And that must not happen again. Ah, me! Is not this life of ours a fearsome thing? Take care! take care! for if you sin that sin, be sure that somehow you will pay for it -- and, it may be, at how hideous a price! So Pilate found in his day; so you, too, will find it in ours... Only God knows what may come out of that, if you should give way to it. Pilate was curt and domineering to the Jews one day. And it was because of that, months later, his unwilling hands set up the cross of Christ: unwilling -- but they did it. Take you care! for sin is very merciless. If you have had the sweet, [sin] will see to it that you quaff the bitter to the very dregs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[History is something that never happened, written by a man who wasn't there. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19352]]></link><description><![CDATA[History is something that never happened, written by a man who wasn't there.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am an agnostic; I do not pretend to know what many ignorant men are sure of. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53575]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am an agnostic; I do not pretend to know what many ignorant men are sure of.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53575</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we don't, this is it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40173]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we don't, this is it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40173</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There was King Bradmond's palace, Was never none richer, the story says:  For all the windows and the walls ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3010]]></link><description><![CDATA[There was King Bradmond's palace, Was never none richer, the story says:  For all the windows and the walls   Were painted with gold, both towers and halls;    Pillars and doors all were of brass;     Windows of latten were set with glass;      It was so rich in many wise,       That it was like a paradise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3010</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A son should inherit his father's money - not his religion; he may be too lazy to build upon a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57234]]></link><description><![CDATA[A son should inherit his father's money - not his religion; he may be too lazy to build upon a new fortune but never too slow to catch up with a new creed]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57234</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more I see of men, the more I admire dogs ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26990]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more I see of men, the more I admire dogs]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26990</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whoever is admitted or sought for, in company, upon any other account than that of his merit and manners, is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27751]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whoever is admitted or sought for, in company, upon any other account than that of his merit and manners, is never respected there, but only made use of. We will have such-a-one, for he sings prettily; we will invite such-a-one to a ball, for he dances well; we will have such-a-one at supper, for he is always joking and laughing; we will ask another because he plays deep at all games, or because he can drink a great deal. These are all vilifying distinctions, mortifying preferences, and exclude all ideas of esteem and regard. Whoever is had (as it is called) in company for the sake of any one thing singly, is singly that thing, and will never be considered in any other light; consequently never respected, let his merits be what they will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't understand complicated problems.
