In all right efforts for the future, religion must be given first place.

Eccl. 12:6. When he understood it, he called for his friends, and told them of it. Then said he, I am going to my Father's; and though with great difficulty I have got hither, yet now I do not repent me of all the trouble I have been at to arrive where I am. My sword I give to him that shall succeed me in my pilgrimage, and my courage and skill to him that can get it. My marks and scars I carry with me, to be a witness for me that I have fought His battles who will now be my rewarder. When the day that he must go hence was come, many accompanied him to the river-side, into which as he went, he said, "Death, where is thy sting?" And as he went down deeper, he said, "Grave, where is thy victory?" 1 Cor. 15:55. So he passed over, and all the trumpets sounded for him on the other side.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7968</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mammon led them on-- Mammon, the least erected Spirit that fell  From Heaven: for even in Heaven his looks ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26234]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mammon led them on-- Mammon, the least erected Spirit that fell  From Heaven: for even in Heaven his looks and thoughts   Were always downward bent, admiring more    The riches of Heaven's pavement, trodden gold,     Than aught divine or holy else enjoyed      In vision beatific.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26234</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is hard enough, even with the best will in the world, to be just.

It is hard, under the pressure of haste, uneasiness, ill-temper, self-complacency, and conceit, to continue intending justice. Power corrupts; the "insolence of office" will creep in. We see it so clearly in our superiors; is it unlikely that our inferiors see it in us? How many of those who have been over us did not sometimes (perhaps often) need our forgiveness?
