It is twice blest: It blesseth him that gives and him that takes. 'T is mightiest in the mightiest: it becomes The throned monarch better than his crown; His sceptre shows the force of temporal power, The attribute to awe and majesty, Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings; But mercy is above this sceptred sway, It is enthroned in the hearts of kings, It is an attribute to God himself; And earthly power doth then show likest God's, When mercy seasons justice. Therefore, Jew, Though justice be thy plea, consider this, That in the course of justice none of us Should see salvation: we do pray for mercy; And that same prayer doth teach us all to render The deeds of mercy. -The Merchant of Venice. Act iv. Sc. 1.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55604</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I thought girls would be impressed because I had read a big dictionary.

To break the basic laws of justice and decency is sin indeed. Man's freedom to honor principles is the moral dimension in his nature, and sin often appears as lawlessness. But sin has its root in something which is more than the will to break the law. The core of sin is our making ourselves the center of life, rather than accepting the holy God as the center. Lack of trust, self-love, pride, these are three ways in which Christians have expressed the real meaning of sin. But what sin does is to make the struggle with evil meaningless. When we refuse to hold our freedom in trust and reverence for God's will, there is nothing which can make the risk of life worth the pain of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Evening words are not like to morning. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49211]]></link><description><![CDATA[Evening words are not like to morning.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49211</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Constitution is the guide which I never will abandon ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9904]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Constitution is the guide which I never will abandon]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9904</guid></item></channel></rss>
