You have only so much Religion as serves to disquiet you, to show you a handwriting on the wall, to interrupt your pleasures, and to appear as a death's-head at all your feasts, but not Religion enough to give you a taste and feeling of its pleasures. You dare not wholly neglect Religion, but then you take no more than is just sufficient to keep you from being a terror to yourself, and you are as loth to be very good as you are fearful to be very bad.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7305</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would rather put my 10 bucks into the community than put it into Wal-Mart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31625]]></link><description><![CDATA[I would rather put my 10 bucks into the community than put it into Wal-Mart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31625</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was just him and me.

It was there that he received the first public witness of his Messianic role and found his first followers. The gospel was to be rooted in John's teaching of asceticism and regeneration. But we see from the start that the gospel of Jesus was to be quite different. To the baptism of water would be added the baptism of the Spirit, and the new message was to be addressed to all. The widening of the circle of hearers and converts, which had preoccupied John, was to expand still further with the gospel of Jesus. Of the hundreds of thousands of Jews, the Essenes only regarded as saved a few thousand elect. Jesus was soon to offer the Covenant of God to all men.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6635</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To-morrow is, ah, whose? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59462]]></link><description><![CDATA[To-morrow is, ah, whose?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59462</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What stronger breast-plate than a heart untainted. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51318]]></link><description><![CDATA[What stronger breast-plate than a heart untainted.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51318</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing happens unless first a dream. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12829]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing happens unless first a dream.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12829</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Short term memory loss equals long term memory gain ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57887]]></link><description><![CDATA[Short term memory loss equals long term memory gain]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57887</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As clear as a whistle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48524]]></link><description><![CDATA[As clear as a whistle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Education... has produced a vast population able to read but unable to distinguish what is worth reading. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13547]]></link><description><![CDATA[Education... has produced a vast population able to read but unable to distinguish what is worth reading.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Speak softly, and carry a big stick; you will go far. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48382]]></link><description><![CDATA[Speak softly, and carry a big stick; you will go far.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48382</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[the best, the most skillful, the most devious and the most cunning. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30126]]></link><description><![CDATA[the best, the most skillful, the most devious and the most cunning.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30126</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anger may in time change to gladness; vexation may be succeeded by content.
