His claims to be God, His claims to be Himself the very principle of life, would be mere self-delusion.

Why should He be right about the lesser things, if He was proved to be completely wrong in the greater?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7756</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Last season, we basically put a lot of pressure on ourselves.
