It is often the one blot on an otherwise noble character. You know men who are all but perfect, and women who would be entirely perfect, but for an easily ruffled, quick-tempered, or "touchy" disposition.

No form of vice -- not worldliness, not greed of gold, not drunkenness itself -- does more to unChristianize society than evil temper. For embittering life, for breaking up communities, for destroying the most sacred relationships, for devastating homes, for withering up men and women, for taking the bloom off of childhood -- in short, for sheer, gratuitous misery-producing power -- this influence stands alone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7259</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more you trust your intuition, the more empowered you become, the stronger you become, and the happier you become. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64421]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more you trust your intuition, the more empowered you become, the stronger you become, and the happier you become.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64421</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man who know little say much.
