He was not indifferent to observances, but the practices of the people bulked in His thoughts before the practices of the Church. It has been pointed out as a blemish on the immortal allegory of Bunyan that the Pilgrim never did anything -- anything but save his soul. The remark is scarcely fair, for the allegory is designedly the story of a soul in a single relation; and, besides, he did do a little. But the warning may well be weighed. The Pilgrim's one thought, his work by day, his dream by night, was escape. He took little part in the world through which he passed. He was a Pilgrim travelling through it; his business was to get through safe. Whatever this is, it is not Christianity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8003</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beauty in art is often nothing but ugliness subdued. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63122]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beauty in art is often nothing but ugliness subdued.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I also have this incredible love for women. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40043]]></link><description><![CDATA[I also have this incredible love for women.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40043</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Too bad you can't buy a voodoo globe so that you could make the earth spin real fast and freak ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11762]]></link><description><![CDATA[Too bad you can't buy a voodoo globe so that you could make the earth spin real fast and freak everybody out.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11762</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you should go skatingOn the thin ice of modern lifeDragging behind you the silent reproachOf a million tear-stained eyesDon't ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15475]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you should go skatingOn the thin ice of modern lifeDragging behind you the silent reproachOf a million tear-stained eyesDon't be surprised when a crack in the iceAppears under your feet.You slip out of your depth and out of your mindWith your fear flowing out behind youAs you claw the thin ice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15475</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What, is the jay more precious than the lark Because his feathers are more beautiful?  Or is the adder ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23127]]></link><description><![CDATA[What, is the jay more precious than the lark Because his feathers are more beautiful?  Or is the adder better than the eel   Because his painted skin contents the eye?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23127</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A light, tender, sensitive touch is worth a ton of brawn. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55150]]></link><description><![CDATA[A light, tender, sensitive touch is worth a ton of brawn.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55150</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man wants but little here below, Nor wants that little long. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61780]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man wants but little here below, Nor wants that little long.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61780</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Self-love is the greatest of all flatterers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60406]]></link><description><![CDATA[Self-love is the greatest of all flatterers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60406</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As large as life, and twice as natural. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2810]]></link><description><![CDATA[As large as life, and twice as natural.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wasn't sure what I was going to do.
