That is the vainest of vain dreams. Rather is this the supreme revelation of a new way of living life; and only those who -- blunderingly, it may be, but yet honestly -- seek to adopt and imitate it can be counted really Christian folk.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7486</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those learned in the law, when they do give advice without the usual fee, and in the confidence of friendship, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24311]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those learned in the law, when they do give advice without the usual fee, and in the confidence of friendship, generally say, "Pay, pay anything rather than go to law.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24311</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A 'C' effort at best.
