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[Though pleas'd to see the dolphins play, I mind my compass and my way. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43999]]></link><description><![CDATA[Though pleas'd to see the dolphins play, I mind my compass and my way.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43999</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that will lose his friend for a jest, deserves to die a beggar by the bargain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23229]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that will lose his friend for a jest, deserves to die a beggar by the bargain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23229</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Accommodated; that is, when a man is, as they say, accommodated; or when a man is, being, whereby a' may ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55932]]></link><description><![CDATA[Accommodated; that is, when a man is, as they say, accommodated; or when a man is, being, whereby a' may be thought to be accommodated,—which is an excellent thing. -King Henry IV.

Secular education seems to me intellectually clean and comprehensible. Moral instruction seems to me unclean, intolerable; I would destroy it with fire. Teaching the Old Testament by itself means teaching ancient Hebrew ethics, which are simple, barbaric rudimentary, and, to a Christian, unsatisfying. Teaching moral instruction means teaching modern London, Birmingham and Boston ethics, which are not barbaric and rudimentary, but are corrupt, hysterical and crawling with worms, and which are to a Christian, not unsatisfying but detestable. The old Jew who says that you must fight only for your tribe is inadequate; but the modern prig who says you must never fight for anything is substantially and specifically immoral. I know quite well, of course, that the unreligious ethics suggested for modern schools do not verbally assert these things; they only talk about peaceful reform, true Christianity, and the importance of Count Tolstoy. It is all a matter of tone and implication--but then, so is all teaching. Education is implication. It is not the things you say which children respect; when you say things, they very commonly laugh and do the opposite. It is the things you assume that really sink into them. It is the things you forget even to teach that they learn.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7915</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no expedient to which a man will go to avoid the real labor ofthinking. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21258]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no expedient to which a man will go to avoid the real labor ofthinking.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To do nothing is also a good remedy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1224]]></link><description><![CDATA[To do nothing is also a good remedy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1224</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The herd instinct among forecasters makes sheep look like independent thinkers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5070]]></link><description><![CDATA[The herd instinct among forecasters makes sheep look like independent thinkers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5070</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Your goals, minus your doubts, equal your reality. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53061]]></link><description><![CDATA[Your goals, minus your doubts, equal your reality.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53061</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A gift much expected is paid, not given. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49026]]></link><description><![CDATA[A gift much expected is paid, not given.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49026</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's our goal to have a wide range of power tools at every price point.
