Each part of Scripture, both open and dark, teaches meekness and charity; and therefore he that keeps meekness and charity has the true understanding and perfection of all Scripture. Therefore, no simple man of wit should be afraid to study in the text of Scripture. And no cleric should be proud of the true understanding of Scripture, because understanding of Scripture without charity that keeps God's commandments, makes a man deeper damned... and pride and covetousness of clerics is the cause of [the Church's] blindness and heresy, and deprives them of the true understanding of Scripture.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[not to allow Lebanon to be a passage for conspiracy against Syria. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29896]]></link><description><![CDATA[not to allow Lebanon to be a passage for conspiracy against Syria.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God is more truly imagined than expressed, and He exists more truly than He is imagined. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17692]]></link><description><![CDATA[God is more truly imagined than expressed, and He exists more truly than He is imagined.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17692</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60618]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60618</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is strange that we do not temper our resentment of criticism with a thought for our many faults which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53938]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is strange that we do not temper our resentment of criticism with a thought for our many faults which have escaped us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53938</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The whole (global warming) thing is created to destroy America's free enterprise system and our economic stability ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17520]]></link><description><![CDATA[The whole (global warming) thing is created to destroy America's free enterprise system and our economic stability]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17520</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21036]]></link><description><![CDATA[I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21036</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you share with someone else, and you don't agree with the person you share with, there's no sovereignty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42454]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you share with someone else, and you don't agree with the person you share with, there's no sovereignty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42454</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Chess is not only knowledge and logic. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28838]]></link><description><![CDATA[Chess is not only knowledge and logic.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I kind of kept the momentum going from last week and just took that into here, at a place where ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30252]]></link><description><![CDATA[I kind of kept the momentum going from last week and just took that into here, at a place where I enjoy playing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30252</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The next way home's the farthest way about. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51051]]></link><description><![CDATA[The next way home's the farthest way about.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51051</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are not trying to entertain the critics.
