Not fiends incarnate, but plain flesh and blood like us; quite ordinary men, decent and kindly souls enough, some of whom, no doubt, went to their homes that day from Calvary and took their children on their knees and loved them very genuinely. Only, they were a bit old fashioned in the make-up of their minds, had grown stiff and inelastic in their thinking, inhospitable to new notions -- surely a very minor sin at worst -- and some feared for their vested interests; and one, poor Pilate, had lost his temper with these impossible Jews in days gone by, and had received a curt warning from Rome that there must be no further bloodshed in Jerusalem, and here was a new trouble at the very worst of times in the whole year, with fanatics in tens of thousands come up for the Feast; and one wanted to save the world by quick-running machinery, and so put Christ into a situation where He could no longer dilly-dally but must do something vivid, dramatic, revolutionary. And the people? No need for us to bother being there at the decision between Jesus and Barabbas. We had the lined streets cheering for Him yesterday. And we have relatives to see, and messages from neighbours to deliver to their kindred. He will be all right; we needn't worry to be there. Such simple and plebian sins -- minds grown a trifle out of date, a little selfishness, some temper and its consequences, a bit of worldly wisdom, and an indifference that did nothing at all -- these brought about the shame of mankind, and the tragedy of history, and the blot upon our annals that will not rub out. And they are all of them within your heart and mine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am convinced that the majority of people would be generous from selfish motives, if they had the opportunity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17255]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am convinced that the majority of people would be generous from selfish motives, if they had the opportunity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17255</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stolen sweets are always sweeter: Stolen kisses much completer;  Stolen looks are nice in chapels:   Stolen, stolen ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59132]]></link><description><![CDATA[Stolen sweets are always sweeter: Stolen kisses much completer;  Stolen looks are nice in chapels:   Stolen, stolen be your apples.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59132</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is betwixt that smile we would aspire to, That sweet aspect of princes, and their ruin,  More pangs ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10455]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is betwixt that smile we would aspire to, That sweet aspect of princes, and their ruin,  More pangs and fears than wars or women have;   And when he falls, he falls like Lucifer,    Never to hope again.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Exceedingly well read. -King Henry IV.

We all know the changes and chances of this troublous life; but we can also know in this vale of tears the healthful spirit of His grace. Health for the whole man is God's gracious purpose for us here and now, often frustrated, often prevented by unbelief. The life of the saints in light must not emphasize for us simply the contrast between their state and ours, but rather the beginning of the gift of eternal life and all its benefits of inner strength and peace amid earthly vicissitudes. .]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ill writers are usually the sharpest censors. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10745]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ill writers are usually the sharpest censors.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10745</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The learned man knows that he is ignorant. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64677]]></link><description><![CDATA[The learned man knows that he is ignorant.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every year the kids learn something and I learn something.
