They become responsive to grandiose schemes, and will display unequaled steadfastness, formidable energies and a special fitness in the performance of tasks which would stump superior people. It seems paradoxical that defeat in dealing with the possible should embolden people to attempt the impossible, but a familiarity with the mentality of the weak reveals that what seems a path of daring is actually an easy way out: It is to escape the responsibility for failure that the weak so eagerly throw themselves into grandiose undertakings.

You may remember, when I was talking about sexual morality, I warned you that the centre of Christian morals did not lie there. Well, now we have come to the centre. According to Christian teachers, the essential vice, the utmost evil, is Pride. Unchastity, greed, drunkenness, and all that, are mere flea-bites in comparison: it was through Pride that the devil became the devil: Pride leads to every other vice: it is the complete anti-God state of mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are only 3 colors, 10 digits, and 7 notes; its what we do withthem that's important. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22601]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are only 3 colors, 10 digits, and 7 notes; its what we do withthem that's important.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of John Wycliffe, Reformer, 1384   In order to the existence of such a ministry in the Church, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6856]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of John Wycliffe, Reformer, 1384   In order to the existence of such a ministry in the Church, there is requisite an authority received from God, and consequently power and knowledge imparted from God for the exercise of such ministry; and where a man possesses these, although the bishop has not laid hands upon him according to his traditions, God has Himself appointed him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6856</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To avoid criticism do nothing, say nothing, be nothing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10757]]></link><description><![CDATA[To avoid criticism do nothing, say nothing, be nothing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10757</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All children are potential victims, dependent upon the world's good will. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60558]]></link><description><![CDATA[All children are potential victims, dependent upon the world's good will.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60558</guid></item></channel></rss>
