A Fox, envying him the honor, discovered a piece of meat lying in a trap, and leading the Monkey to the place where it was, said that she had found a store, but had not used it, she had kept it for him as treasure trove of his kingdom, and counseled him to lay hold of it. The Monkey approached carelessly and was caught in the trap; and on his accusing the Fox of purposely leading him into the snare, she replied, O Monkey, and are you, with such a mind as yours, going to be King over the Beasts?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mountain is passed; now we shall get on better. [Fr., La montagne est passee; nous irons mieux.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24117]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mountain is passed; now we shall get on better. [Fr., La montagne est passee; nous irons mieux.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24117</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have lost all concept of time since this thing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30726]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have lost all concept of time since this thing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30726</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mary Slessor, Missionary in West Africa, 1915  All love in general hath an assimilating efficacy; it casts ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7131]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mary Slessor, Missionary in West Africa, 1915  All love in general hath an assimilating efficacy; it casts the mind into the mould of the thing beloved...

These were people who were putting up no resistance, many with no weapons, leaving in cars, trucks, carts, and on foot. The American armed forces bombed one endof the main highway from Kuwait City to Basra, sealing it off andthen bombed the other end of the highway, sealing it off. Theypositioned mechanized artillery units on the hill overlooking thearea and then, both from the air and the land, massacred every livingthing on the road. Fighter bombers, helicopter gunships, and armoredbattalions poured merciless firepower on those trapped in the trafficjams, backed up as much as 20 miles. One U.S. pilot reportedlysaid, It was like shooting fish in a barrel. That fateful stretchof road has since been dubbed the Highway of Death.In a report submitted to the Commission of Inquiry for theInternational War Crimes Tribunal, charges are made that those killedwere Palestinian and Kuwaiti civilians trying to escape the siege ofKuwait City and the return of Kuwaiti armed forces. The report claimsthat no attempt was made by U.S. military command to distinguishbetween military personnel and civilians.*****The Guardian newspaper in the UK has written of the 9000Iraqis killed by the RAF bombs in 1920, one of the 6 timesBritish oil interests have violated the people of Iraq in thelast 86 years.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off the goal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1435]]></link><description><![CDATA[Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off the goal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It will always be a special place.
