He had many, but His favourite was to their chivalry and valour. Often He underlines the difficulties of discipleship, warns us what it will cost, that it means risk and loss and sacrifice, and pulling hard against fierce currents; and then He turns and looks at us, with that honouring trust of His in us that sets the blood tingling and makes the cheeks flush with pride. That, He says quietly, is why I am so sure that you will come: you are too big to keep out of it!

He appealed to the Ass tofly with him, lest they should both be captured, but the animallazily replied, Why should I, pray? Do you think it likely theconqueror will place on me two sets of panniers?' No, rejoinedthe Shepherd. Then, said the Ass, as long as I carry thepanniers, what matters it to me whom I serve?' In a change of government the poor change nothing beyond the name of their master.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1504</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The master of art or giver of wit, Their belly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13215]]></link><description><![CDATA[The master of art or giver of wit, Their belly.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He was a true friend of Bangladesh cricket.

To break the basic laws of justice and decency is sin indeed. Man's freedom to honor principles is the moral dimension in his nature, and sin often appears as lawlessness. But sin has its root in something which is more than the will to break the law. The core of sin is our making ourselves the center of life, rather than accepting the holy God as the center. Lack of trust, self-love, pride, these are three ways in which Christians have expressed the real meaning of sin. But what sin does is to make the struggle with evil meaningless. When we refuse to hold our freedom in trust and reverence for God's will, there is nothing which can make the risk of life worth the pain of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Opium teaches only one thing, which is that aside from physical suffering, there is nothing real. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45020]]></link><description><![CDATA[Opium teaches only one thing, which is that aside from physical suffering, there is nothing real.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Joy and grief are never far apart.
