If therefore we depart without profit, our zeal in frequenting the church will prove our condemnation. That so great a judgment comes not upon you, when ye go hence ponder the things ye have heard, and exercise yourselves in confirming our instruction -- friend with friend, fathers with their children, masters with their slaves -- so that, when ye return hither and hear from us the same counsels, ye may not be ashamed, but rejoice and be glad in the conviction that ye have put into practice the greater part of our exhortation. Not only must we meditate upon these things here -- for this short exhortation sufficeth not to eradicate the evil -- but at home let the husband be reminded of them by the wife, and the wife by the husband, and let an emulation obtain in families to the fulfilment of the divine law.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The moment of finding a fellow-creature is often as full of mingled doubt and exultation, as the moment of finding ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15538]]></link><description><![CDATA[The moment of finding a fellow-creature is often as full of mingled doubt and exultation, as the moment of finding an idea.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15538</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Suppose you were an idiot and suppose you were a member of Congress.
