There had been days when he had been too hectoring or domineering -- so, at least, these impossible people had said, though he himself denied it still. At all events, protesting to Rome, they had won the Emperor's ear, and humbled their governor. And that must not happen again. Ah, me! Is not this life of ours a fearsome thing? Take care! take care! for if you sin that sin, be sure that somehow you will pay for it -- and, it may be, at how hideous a price! So Pilate found in his day; so you, too, will find it in ours... Only God knows what may come out of that, if you should give way to it. Pilate was curt and domineering to the Jews one day. And it was because of that, months later, his unwilling hands set up the cross of Christ: unwilling -- but they did it. Take you care! for sin is very merciless. If you have had the sweet, [sin] will see to it that you quaff the bitter to the very dregs.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Master, go on, and I will follow thee To the last gasp with truth and loyalty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55222]]></link><description><![CDATA[Master, go on, and I will follow thee To the last gasp with truth and loyalty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you have to forecast, forecast often. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15701]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you have to forecast, forecast often.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15701</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Corpse or a Ghost-- . . .
