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[Basically I am interrested in friendship, sex, and death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24906]]></link><description><![CDATA[Basically I am interrested in friendship, sex, and death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24906</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The camp was stormed about 4 a.m. this morning.
