No, my friends, we must never, in our wish to shun slander, foster or flatter vice in others: but we must call evil evil, and sin sin, and so doing we shall serve God's glory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6909</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man likes to be surpassed by those of this own level. [Lat., A proximis quisque minime anteire vult.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14018]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man likes to be surpassed by those of this own level. [Lat., A proximis quisque minime anteire vult.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14018</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let us be friends, Cinna, it is I who invite you to be so. [Fr., Soyons amis, Cinna, c'est moi ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16772]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let us be friends, Cinna, it is I who invite you to be so. [Fr., Soyons amis, Cinna, c'est moi qui t'en convie.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16772</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It has been hard just getting back in the groove.
