The next day it snowed very hard, so that he could not take the herd to their usual feeding places, but was obliged to keep them in the fold. He gave his own goats just sufficient food to keep them alive, but fed the strangers more abundantly in the hope of enticing them to stay with him and of making them his own. When the thaw set in, he led them all out to feed, and the Wild Goats scampered away as fast as they could to the mountains. The Goatherd scolded them for their ingratitude in leaving him, when during the storm he had taken more care of them than of his own herd. One of them, turning about, said to him: That is the very reason why we are so cautious; for if you yesterday treated us better than the Goats you have had so long, it is plain also that if others came after us, you would in the same manner prefer them to ourselves. Old friends cannot with impunity be sacrificed for new ones.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1562</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a body meet a body going to the Fair, If a body kiss a body need a body care? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23827]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a body meet a body going to the Fair, If a body kiss a body need a body care?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23827</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dignity belongs to the conquered. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1247]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dignity belongs to the conquered.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Zeal then, not charity, became the guide. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62629]]></link><description><![CDATA[Zeal then, not charity, became the guide.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It grossed something like 12 million dollars and started a cycle of so-called boy-meets-ghoul horror films. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43371]]></link><description><![CDATA[It grossed something like 12 million dollars and started a cycle of so-called boy-meets-ghoul horror films.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43371</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mind your P's and Q's. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48596]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mind your P's and Q's.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good service is a great inchantment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49290]]></link><description><![CDATA[Good service is a great inchantment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49290</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I figured that if I said it enough, I would convince the world that I really was the greatest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1648]]></link><description><![CDATA[I figured that if I said it enough, I would convince the world that I really was the greatest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1648</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For changes to be of any true value, they've got to be lasting and consistent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63406]]></link><description><![CDATA[For changes to be of any true value, they've got to be lasting and consistent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63406</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can tell it all in song: pathos, gladness, love, joy, unhappiness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65353]]></link><description><![CDATA[I can tell it all in song: pathos, gladness, love, joy, unhappiness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[These men that kill 100, 50 and 70 men a day -- have they been put to death.
