And hence it is that worse passions, or a worse degree of them are to be found in persons of great religious zeal than in others that made no pretenses to it. History also furnishes us with instances of persons of great piety and devotion who have fallen into great delusions and deceived both themselves and others. The occasion of their fall was this: ... They considered their whole nature as the subject of religion and divine graces; and therefore their religion was according to the workings of their whole nature, and the old man was as busy and as much delighted in it as the new.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hope is the expectation that something outside of ourselves, something or someone external, is going to come to our rescue ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21814]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hope is the expectation that something outside of ourselves, something or someone external, is going to come to our rescue and we will live happily ever after.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21814</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The latest chip helps us go after the Web and application tier in the data center, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34798]]></link><description><![CDATA[The latest chip helps us go after the Web and application tier in the data center,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34798</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some bold adventurers disdain The limits of their little reign,  And unknown regions date descry. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/667]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some bold adventurers disdain The limits of their little reign,  And unknown regions date descry.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/667</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Faith is not belief.

First, that He was a Sabbath-breaker. Secondly, that He was "a gluttonous man and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners" -- or (to draw aside the veil of Elizabethan English that makes it sound so much more respectable) that He ate too heartily, drank too freely, and kept very disreputable company, including grafters of the lowest type and ladies who were no better than they should be. For nineteen and a half centuries, the Christian Churches have laboured, not without success, to remove this unfortunate impression made by their Lord and Master. They have hustled the Magdalens from the Communion-table, founded Total Abstinence Societies in the name of Him who made the water wine, and added improvements of their own, such as various bans and anathemas upon dancing and theatre-going. They have transferred the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday, and, feeling that the original commandment "Thou shalt not work" was rather half-hearted, have added to it the new commandment, "Thou shalt not play.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6874</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With the time compression we have in the world, people are interested ... in fitness facilities for casual use and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31109]]></link><description><![CDATA[With the time compression we have in the world, people are interested ... in fitness facilities for casual use and paths in parks.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31109</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Victory is won not in miles but in inches.
