You put some of the virus of some dreadful illness into a man's arm, and there is a little itchiness, some scratchiness, a slight discomfort--disagreeable, no doubt, but not the fever of the real disease, the turning and the tossing, and the ebbing strength. And we have all been inoculated with Christianity, more or less. We are on Christ's side, we wish him well, we hope that He will win, and we are even prepared to do something for Him, provided, of course, that He is reasonable, and does not make too much of an upset among our cozy comforts and our customary ways. But there is not the passion of zeal, and the burning enthusiasm, and the eagerness of self-sacrifice, of the real faith that changes character and wins the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7878</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A lost good name is ne'er retriev'd. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53880]]></link><description><![CDATA[A lost good name is ne'er retriev'd.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53880</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[There is an odd grammar in that sentence, which seems wrong, but is actually precise.] Close siblings were less common, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39538]]></link><description><![CDATA[[There is an odd grammar in that sentence, which seems wrong, but is actually precise.] Close siblings were less common, ...

Wrath, which is a fourth birth from these three, can have no existence till one or all of these three are contradicted, or have something done to them that is contrary to their will. These four properties generate their own torment. They have no outward cause, nor any inward power of altering themselves. And therefore all self or nature must be in this state until some supernatural good comes into it, or gets a birth in it. Whilst man indeed lives among the vanities of time, his covetousness, envy, pride, and wrath may be in a tolerable state, may hold him to a mixture of peace and trouble; they may have at times their gratifications as well as their torments. But when death has put an end to the vanity of all earthly cheats, the soul that is not born again of the Supernatural Word and Spirit of God, must find itself unavoidably devoured and shut up in its own insatiable, unchangeable, self-tormenting covetousness, envy, pride, and wrath.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[...whenever it is necessary that one of several conflicting opinions should prevail and when one would have to be made ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47389]]></link><description><![CDATA[...whenever it is necessary that one of several conflicting opinions should prevail and when one would have to be made to prevail by force if need be, it is less wasteful to determine which has the stronger support by counting numbers than by fighting.
