Unchastity, greed, drunkenness, and all that, are mere flea-bites in comparison: it was through Pride that the devil became the devil: Pride leads to every other vice: it is the complete anti-God state of mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8551</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We challenged New Trier a little bit in the second game.

This is a synthesis of New Testament grace and Old Testament ethics. With this synthesis, Protestants have solved the problem of finding a gracious God, but they have not solved the problem of finding gracious neighbors. They can fellowship with God because he is gracious; but they find it difficult to fellowship with one another, because they are not so gracious.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6729</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Favour will as surely perish as life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49235]]></link><description><![CDATA[Favour will as surely perish as life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happy the heart that keeps its twilight hour, And, in the depths of heavenly peace reclined,  Loves to commune ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26792]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happy the heart that keeps its twilight hour, And, in the depths of heavenly peace reclined,  Loves to commune with thoughts of tender power,--   A shining Jacob's-ladder of the mind!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26792</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vice deceives us when dressed in the garb of virtue. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50528]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vice deceives us when dressed in the garb of virtue.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50528</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Either this man is dead or my watch has stopped. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11367]]></link><description><![CDATA[Either this man is dead or my watch has stopped.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11367</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The scholar who cherishes the love of comfort, is not fit to be deemed a scholar. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58018]]></link><description><![CDATA[The scholar who cherishes the love of comfort, is not fit to be deemed a scholar.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58018</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Civilization and profit go hand in hand. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48339]]></link><description><![CDATA[Civilization and profit go hand in hand.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48339</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music is the only language in which you cannot say a mean or sarcastic thing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43489]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music is the only language in which you cannot say a mean or sarcastic thing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43489</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The worldwide adoption rate of large-screen HDTV sets by consumers has increased significantly over the last year.
