The prophets should have taught us a different lesson. They should have led us to feel that it was a solemn duty, not to conceal, but to bring forward all the evidence which proves, not that one country is better than another, or one portion of the church better than another, but that there is a principle of decay, a tendency to apostasy in all, and that no comfort can come from merely balancing symptoms of good here against symptoms of evil there, no comfort from considering whether we are a little less contentious, a little less idolatrous than our neighbors.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6995</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first duty of love is to listen. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25160]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first duty of love is to listen.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25160</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Not perfect, nay, but full of tender wants. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51707]]></link><description><![CDATA[Not perfect, nay, but full of tender wants.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51707</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Innovation!

Secular education seems to me intellectually clean and comprehensible. Moral instruction seems to me unclean, intolerable; I would destroy it with fire. Teaching the Old Testament by itself means teaching ancient Hebrew ethics, which are simple, barbaric rudimentary, and, to a Christian, unsatisfying. Teaching moral instruction means teaching modern London, Birmingham and Boston ethics, which are not barbaric and rudimentary, but are corrupt, hysterical and crawling with worms, and which are to a Christian, not unsatisfying but detestable. The old Jew who says that you must fight only for your tribe is inadequate; but the modern prig who says you must never fight for anything is substantially and specifically immoral. I know quite well, of course, that the unreligious ethics suggested for modern schools do not verbally assert these things; they only talk about peaceful reform, true Christianity, and the importance of Count Tolstoy. It is all a matter of tone and implication--but then, so is all teaching. Education is implication. It is not the things you say which children respect; when you say things, they very commonly laugh and do the opposite. It is the things you assume that really sink into them. It is the things you forget even to teach that they learn.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7915</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May be he is not well. Infirmity doth neglect all office  Whereto our health is bound. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18928]]></link><description><![CDATA[May be he is not well. Infirmity doth neglect all office  Whereto our health is bound.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18928</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Catch on fire with enthusiasm and people will come for miles to watch youburn. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22415]]></link><description><![CDATA[Catch on fire with enthusiasm and people will come for miles to watch youburn.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22415</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Born to be wild - live to outgrow it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61574]]></link><description><![CDATA[Born to be wild - live to outgrow it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wrote the story myself.
