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[Confidence is courage at ease. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9671]]></link><description><![CDATA[Confidence is courage at ease.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sameness is the mother of disgust, variety the cure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60449]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sameness is the mother of disgust, variety the cure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60449</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A doctrine capable of being stated only in obscure and involved terms is open to reasonable suspicion of being either ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12625]]></link><description><![CDATA[A doctrine capable of being stated only in obscure and involved terms is open to reasonable suspicion of being either crude or erroneous]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12625</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art thou the bird whom Man loves best, The pious bird with the scarlet breast,  Our little English Robin; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54345]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art thou the bird whom Man loves best, The pious bird with the scarlet breast,  Our little English Robin;   The bird that comes about our doors    When autumn winds are sobbing?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54345</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm no idealist to believe firmly in the integrity of our courts and in the jury system -- that is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23592]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm no idealist to believe firmly in the integrity of our courts and in the jury system -- that is no ideal to me, it is a living, working reality.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23592</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it.
