Not fiends incarnate, but plain flesh and blood like us; quite ordinary men, decent and kindly souls enough, some of whom, no doubt, went to their homes that day from Calvary and took their children on their knees and loved them very genuinely. Only, they were a bit old fashioned in the make-up of their minds, had grown stiff and inelastic in their thinking, inhospitable to new notions -- surely a very minor sin at worst -- and some feared for their vested interests; and one, poor Pilate, had lost his temper with these impossible Jews in days gone by, and had received a curt warning from Rome that there must be no further bloodshed in Jerusalem, and here was a new trouble at the very worst of times in the whole year, with fanatics in tens of thousands come up for the Feast; and one wanted to save the world by quick-running machinery, and so put Christ into a situation where He could no longer dilly-dally but must do something vivid, dramatic, revolutionary. And the people? No need for us to bother being there at the decision between Jesus and Barabbas. We had the lined streets cheering for Him yesterday. And we have relatives to see, and messages from neighbours to deliver to their kindred. He will be all right; we needn't worry to be there. Such simple and plebian sins -- minds grown a trifle out of date, a little selfishness, some temper and its consequences, a bit of worldly wisdom, and an indifference that did nothing at all -- these brought about the shame of mankind, and the tragedy of history, and the blot upon our annals that will not rub out. And they are all of them within your heart and mine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pleasure of love lasts but a moment, Pain of love lasts a lifetime. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25685]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pleasure of love lasts but a moment, Pain of love lasts a lifetime.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25685</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Adieu!

The apostle calls it the band of perfection; it is the old, and it is the new, and it is the great commandment, and it is all the commandments; for it is the fulfilling of the Law. It does the work of all the graces without any instrument but its own immediate virtue. For as the love of sin makes a man sin against all his own reason, and all the discourses of wisdom, and all the advices of his friends, and without temptation and without opportunity, so does the love of God: it makes a man chaste without the laborious arts of fasting and exterior disciplines, temperate in the midst of feasts, and is active enough to choose it without any intermedial appetites, and reaches at glory through the very heart of grace, without any other aims but those of love. It is a grace that loves God for Himself, and our neighbors for God. The consideration of God's goodness and bounty, the experience of those profitable and excellent emanations from Him, may be, and most commonly are, the first motive of our love; but when we are once entered, and have tasted the goodness of God, we love the spring for its own excellency, passing from passion to reason, from thanking to adoring, from sense to spirit, from considering ourselves to union with God: and this is the image and little representation of heaven; it is beatitude in picture, or rather the infancy and beginning of glory.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6897</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you're not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you're not a conservative at forty you have ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46927]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you're not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you're not a conservative at forty you have no brain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46927</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A chip on the shoulder is too heavy a piece of baggage to carry through life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53935]]></link><description><![CDATA[A chip on the shoulder is too heavy a piece of baggage to carry through life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53935</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And dreams in their development have breath, And tears, and tortures, and the touch of joy;  They have a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12864]]></link><description><![CDATA[And dreams in their development have breath, And tears, and tortures, and the touch of joy;  They have a weight upon our waking thoughts,   They take a weight from off our waking toils,    They do divide our being.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12864</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Society is joint action and cooperation in which each participant sees the other partner's success as a means for the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56784]]></link><description><![CDATA[Society is joint action and cooperation in which each participant sees the other partner's success as a means for the attainment of his own.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56784</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are very confident that those extremists will also fail to disrupt and derail voting day, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37524]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are very confident that those extremists will also fail to disrupt and derail voting day,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've done a lot of camps and Ryan is great with the kids.
