The persistent appeal to covetousness is fundamentally opposed to the unselfishness which was taught by Jesus Christ and by the New Testament as a whole. The attempt (which is inseparable from gambling) to make a profit out of the inevitable loss and possible suffering of others is the antithesis of that love of one's neighbour on which our Lord insisted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7115</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every bullet has its billet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51857]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every bullet has its billet.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51857</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Liberty can not be preserved without a general knowledge among the people. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24751]]></link><description><![CDATA[Liberty can not be preserved without a general knowledge among the people.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Advice is seldom welcome; and those who want it the most always like it the least. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1163]]></link><description><![CDATA[Advice is seldom welcome; and those who want it the most always like it the least.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1163</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ah Mozart!
