Not fiends incarnate, but plain flesh and blood like us; quite ordinary men, decent and kindly souls enough, some of whom, no doubt, went to their homes that day from Calvary and took their children on their knees and loved them very genuinely. Only, they were a bit old fashioned in the make-up of their minds, had grown stiff and inelastic in their thinking, inhospitable to new notions -- surely a very minor sin at worst -- and some feared for their vested interests; and one, poor Pilate, had lost his temper with these impossible Jews in days gone by, and had received a curt warning from Rome that there must be no further bloodshed in Jerusalem, and here was a new trouble at the very worst of times in the whole year, with fanatics in tens of thousands come up for the Feast; and one wanted to save the world by quick-running machinery, and so put Christ into a situation where He could no longer dilly-dally but must do something vivid, dramatic, revolutionary. And the people? No need for us to bother being there at the decision between Jesus and Barabbas. We had the lined streets cheering for Him yesterday. And we have relatives to see, and messages from neighbours to deliver to their kindred. He will be all right; we needn't worry to be there. Such simple and plebian sins -- minds grown a trifle out of date, a little selfishness, some temper and its consequences, a bit of worldly wisdom, and an indifference that did nothing at all -- these brought about the shame of mankind, and the tragedy of history, and the blot upon our annals that will not rub out. And they are all of them within your heart and mine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I will chide no breather in the world but myself, against whom I know most faults. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15466]]></link><description><![CDATA[I will chide no breather in the world but myself, against whom I know most faults.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15466</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The time to stop talking is when the other person nods his head affirmatively but says nothing. -Unknown. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25212]]></link><description><![CDATA[The time to stop talking is when the other person nods his head affirmatively but says nothing. -Unknown.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25212</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is being looked at.

Even when the words do not seem harsh or offensive, the impact is shattering. What we could be experiencing is the intent behind the words. When we intend to do good, we do. When we intend to do harm, it happens. What each of us must come to realize is that our intent always comes through. We cannot sugarcoat the feelings in our heart of hearts. The emotion is the energy that motivates. We cannot ignore what we really want to create. We should be honest and do it the way we feel it. What we owe to ourselves and everyone around is to examine the reasons of our true intent.My intent will be evident in the results.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[NATO has been supporting Haj pilgrimage for those Afghans who wish to go to Saudi Arabia.
