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[If you don't value what you have, you're sure to lose it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33314]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you don't value what you have, you're sure to lose it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33314</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And history with all her volumes vast, Hath but one page. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19316]]></link><description><![CDATA[And history with all her volumes vast, Hath but one page.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A wise man will make haste to forgive, because he knows the full value of time and will not suffer ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16528]]></link><description><![CDATA[A wise man will make haste to forgive, because he knows the full value of time and will not suffer it to pass away in unnecessary pain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16528</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can best reward a liar by believing nothing of what he says. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26149]]></link><description><![CDATA[You can best reward a liar by believing nothing of what he says.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Please take the next step to release my husband and return his children's lives to normal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40729]]></link><description><![CDATA[Please take the next step to release my husband and return his children's lives to normal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40729</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Diamonds are forever.
