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://maxioms.com/maxiom/6275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's upsetting (we lost) but it's great to be a part of a team that never gives up.

As he passed along,the crowd made lowly prostration before the Image. The Ass,thinking that they bowed their heads in token of respect forhimself, bristled up with pride, gave himself airs, and refusedto move another step. The driver, seeing him thus stop, laid hiswhip lustily about his shoulders and said, O you perversedull-head! it is not yet come to this, that men pay worship to anAss. They are not wise who give to themselves the credit due to others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1502</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some men give up their designs when they have almost reached the goal; While others, on the contrary, obtain a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10420]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some men give up their designs when they have almost reached the goal; While others, on the contrary, obtain a victory by exerting, at the last moment, more vigorous efforts than ever before.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10420</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men of great conversational powers almost universally practise a sort of lively sophistry and exaggeration which deceives for the moment ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10100]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men of great conversational powers almost universally practise a sort of lively sophistry and exaggeration which deceives for the moment both themselves and their auditors.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We laid it on the line.
