When he returned home after a good day's sport, he always gave the Housedog a large share of his spoil. The Hound, feeling much aggrieved at this, reproached his companion, saying, It is very hard to have all this labor, while you, who do not assist in the chase, luxuriate on the fruits of my exertions. The Housedog replied, Do not blame me, my friend, but find fault with the master, who has not taught me to labor, but to depend for subsistence on the labor of others. Children are not to be blamed for the faults of their parents.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1599</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Her mouth is a honey-blossom,  No doubt, as the poet sings; But within her lips, the petals,  Lurks ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54754]]></link><description><![CDATA[Her mouth is a honey-blossom,  No doubt, as the poet sings; But within her lips, the petals,  Lurks a cruel bee that stings.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54754</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The tourist may complain of other tourists, but he would be lost without them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59500]]></link><description><![CDATA[The tourist may complain of other tourists, but he would be lost without them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59500</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The plan is to do one business every weekend in time for next spring when everything will be blooming.

It is only by contact with God that a better quality of living can be achieved -- and Jesus Himself, as the records show, speent many hours in communion with God -- yet that new quality of life has to be both demonstrated and tested in the ordinary rough-and-tumble of plain living.

Men might allege that they had seen the risen Lord; but that was nothing till they themselves were known. The witness of the resurrection was not the word of Paul (as we see at Athens) nor of the Eleven; it was the new power in life and death that the world saw in changed men... The legend of a reputed resurrection of some unknown person in Palestine nobody needed to consider; but what were you to do with the people who died in the arena, the reborn slaves with their newness of life in your own house? And when you "looked into the story", it was no mere somebody or other of whom they told it. The conviction of the people you knew, amazing in its power of transforming character and winning first the goodwill and the trust and then the conversion of others, was supported and confirmed by the nature and personality of the Man of whom they spoke, of whom you read in their books. "Never man spake like this man", you read, nor thought like this man, nor like this man believed in God. I can not but think that the factors that make a man Christian to-day were those that won the world then, our age and that age, in culture, in hopes and fears in loss of nerve, are not unlike.
