But the little mark on the soul may be much the same in both. Each has done something to himself which, unless he repents, will make it harder for him to keep out of the rage the next time he is tempted, and will make the rage worse when he does fall into it.

There are too many who are devout, but not students. They will not accept the discipline of study and of learning, and they even look with suspicion upon the further knowledge which study brings to men. There are equally too many who are students, but not devout. They are interested too much in intellectual knowledge, and too little in the life of prayer and in the life of service of their fellow men. A man would do well to aim at being not only a student, and not only devout, but at being a devout student.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7874</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In an unconstitutional partnership with the state, the church can impose the most irresistible, if covert, controls conceivable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64118]]></link><description><![CDATA[In an unconstitutional partnership with the state, the church can impose the most irresistible, if covert, controls conceivable.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64118</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This garden is the crown jewel of the entire restoration project.
