But he could not read Latin, and so the Scriptures were a closed book to him. However, he hired two money-minded priests, who, in violation of strict regulations, translated the Bible for him into Provençal, the language of southern France. The content of the Word of God made such an impression upon this earnest man that he gave up his business, took upon himself a vow of poverty, and dedicated himself to the simple preaching of the contents of God's Word.  The Latin of the Church only mystified its hearers [but] Waldo's humble preaching edified the souls of men. His words were not spectacular but powerful, as he pleaded with them to repent. Much of his preaching and that of his followers consisted in reciting long passages of Scripture in the vernacular. Many of them could not afford an expensive handwritten copy of the Bible, and the ecclesiastical authorities could too easily rob them of such a book; but they could not erase the words which were treasured in the heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6708</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greatest of faults, I should say, is to be conscious of none. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15423]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greatest of faults, I should say, is to be conscious of none.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15423</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A few games after Peter Laviolette became the coach, I began to get more ice time, ...

It was that sense which, without irreverence, I have thought to find expressed by the great evangelists when they speak of the fear of God. One does not fear God because He is terrible, but because He is literally the soul of goodness and truth, because to do Him wrong is to do wrong to some mysterious part of oneself, and one does not know exactly what the consequences may be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A long and wicked life followed by five minutes of perfect grace gets you into Heaven.

The institution is static, whereas its parent movement has been dynamic; it confines men within its limits, while the movement had liberated them from the bondage of institutions; it looks to the past, [although] the movement had pointed forward. Though in content the institution resembles the dynamic epoch whence it proceeded, in spirit it is like the [state] before the revolution. So the Christian church, after the early period, often seemed more closely related in attitude to the Jewish synagogue and the Roman state than to the age of Christ and his apostles; its creed was often more like a system of philosophy than like the living gospel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There should be many judges, for few will always do the will of few. [It., Bisogna che i giudici siano ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23506]]></link><description><![CDATA[There should be many judges, for few will always do the will of few. [It., Bisogna che i giudici siano assai, perche pochi sempre fanno a modo de' pochi.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was good to get them under our belt.
