That God should be in a state of constant fury with the wicked seemed to them only right and proper, but that God should be kind towards those who were defying or disobeying His laws seemed to them a monstrous injustice. Yet I was but quoting the Son of God Himself, and I only comment here that the terrifying risks that God takes are part of His Nature. We do not need to explain or modify His unremitting love towards mankind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Might does not make right, it only makes history. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19522]]></link><description><![CDATA[Might does not make right, it only makes history.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19522</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63164]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63164</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What I look forward to is continued immaturity followed by death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11336]]></link><description><![CDATA[What I look forward to is continued immaturity followed by death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11336</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Get money, money still! And then let virtue follow, if she will. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50926]]></link><description><![CDATA[Get money, money still! And then let virtue follow, if she will.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50926</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I only drink wine, and it's a bit early for that. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29394]]></link><description><![CDATA[I only drink wine, and it's a bit early for that.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29394</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Definition of 'Free': You pay for it whether or not you elect to receive it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28182]]></link><description><![CDATA[Definition of 'Free': You pay for it whether or not you elect to receive it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28182</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You know, men and women are a lot alike in certain situations.
