For to be vain, or proud, or covetous, or ambitious, in the common course of our business, is as contrary to these holy tempers of Christianity as cheating and dishonesty. If a glutton were to say, in excuse of his gluttony, that he only eats such things as it is lawful to eat, he would make as good an excuse for himself as the greedy, covetous, ambitious tradesman that would say that he only deals in lawful business. For, as a Christian is not only required to be honest, but to be of a Christian spirit, and make his life an exercise of humility, repentance, and heavenly affection, so all tempers that are contrary to these are as contrary to Christianity as cheating is contrary to honesty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7230</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Intolerance betrays want of faith in one's cause. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22975]]></link><description><![CDATA[Intolerance betrays want of faith in one's cause.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22975</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I never did a day's work in my life.

Paul Getty   Failure is not fatal; victory is not success. •Tony Richardson   Don't fear failure so much that you refuse to try new things. The saddest summary of a life contains three descriptions: could have, might have, and should have. •Louis Boone   Failure is simply a few errors in judgment, repeated every day. •Jim Rohn  There are two kinds of failures: those who thought and never did, and those who did and never thought. •Laurence J.
