There had been days when he had been too hectoring or domineering -- so, at least, these impossible people had said, though he himself denied it still. At all events, protesting to Rome, they had won the Emperor's ear, and humbled their governor. And that must not happen again. Ah, me! Is not this life of ours a fearsome thing? Take care! take care! for if you sin that sin, be sure that somehow you will pay for it -- and, it may be, at how hideous a price! So Pilate found in his day; so you, too, will find it in ours... Only God knows what may come out of that, if you should give way to it. Pilate was curt and domineering to the Jews one day. And it was because of that, months later, his unwilling hands set up the cross of Christ: unwilling -- but they did it. Take you care! for sin is very merciless. If you have had the sweet, [sin] will see to it that you quaff the bitter to the very dregs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To believe with certainty we must begin with doubting. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12766]]></link><description><![CDATA[To believe with certainty we must begin with doubting.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12766</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So mourn'd the dame of Ephesus her Love, And thus the Soldier arm'd with Resolution  Told his soft Tale, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62015]]></link><description><![CDATA[So mourn'd the dame of Ephesus her Love, And thus the Soldier arm'd with Resolution  Told his soft Tale, and was a thriving Wooer.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62015</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Put your toong in your purse. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50146]]></link><description><![CDATA[Put your toong in your purse.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50146</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We recognize the duty of governments to combat crime, but this is a knee-jerk response -- it shows that China's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41753]]></link><description><![CDATA[We recognize the duty of governments to combat crime, but this is a knee-jerk response -- it shows that China's 'Strike Hard' crime campaign mentality is still prevalent, at least in some parts of the country.
