Therefore I do not see how it is possible in the nature of things for any revival of religion to continue long. For religion must necessarily produce both industry and frugality, and these cannot but produce riches. But as riches increase, so will pride, anger, and love of the world in all its branches. How then is it possible that Methodism, that is a religion of the heart, though it flourishes now as the green bay tree, should continue in this state? For the Methodists in every place grow diligent and frugal; consequently, they increase in goods. Hence, they proportionately increase in pride, in anger, in the desire of the flesh, the desire of the eyes, and the pride of life. So, although the form of religion remains, the spirit is swiftly vanishing away. Is there no way to prevent ... this continual decay of pure religion?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7080</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19730]]></link><description><![CDATA[A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19730</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63088]]></link><description><![CDATA[Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63088</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The great religious historian, Eusebius, ingenuously remarks that in his history he carefully omitted whatever tended to discredit the church, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19301]]></link><description><![CDATA[The great religious historian, Eusebius, ingenuously remarks that in his history he carefully omitted whatever tended to discredit the church, and that he piously magnified all that conduced to her glory]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19301</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His voice no touch of harmony admits, Irregularly deep, and shrill by fits.  The two extremes appear like man ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60912]]></link><description><![CDATA[His voice no touch of harmony admits, Irregularly deep, and shrill by fits.  The two extremes appear like man and wife   Coupled together for the sake of strife.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60912</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[Ruckman Matthew Allan met Sheedy yesterday morning and the two have agreed to talk again this week.
