If you have to do with one who is unquestionably a slanderer, do not excuse him by calling him frank and free-spoken; do not call one who is notoriously vain, liberal and elegant; do not call dangerous levities mere simplicity; do not screen disobedience under the name of zeal; or arrogance, of frankness; or evil intimacy, of friendship. No, my friends, we must never, in our wish to shun slander, foster or flatter vice in others: but we must call evil evil, and sin sin, and so doing we shall serve God's glory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6909</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is reading, but silent conversation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4576]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is reading, but silent conversation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[man is only a reed, the weakest thing in nature, but he is a thinking reed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19983]]></link><description><![CDATA[man is only a reed, the weakest thing in nature, but he is a thinking reed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19983</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When I see professional clowns, mimes, or people that make balloon animals, I always think of their relatives and how ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27490]]></link><description><![CDATA[When I see professional clowns, mimes, or people that make balloon animals, I always think of their relatives and how disappointed they must be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With thumb turned. [Lat., Verso pollice.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23536]]></link><description><![CDATA[With thumb turned. [Lat., Verso pollice.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Risk assessment has not proven itself infallible.
