One of the Apes, who had raised himself to beking, commanded them to be seized and brought before him, that hemight know what was said of him among men. He ordered at thesame time that all the Apes be arranged in a long row on hisright hand and on his left, and that a throne be placed for him,as was the custom among men. After these preparations hesignified that the two men should be brought before him, andgreeted them with this salutation: What sort of a king do I seemto you to be, O strangers?' The Lying Traveler replied, You seemto me a most mighty king. And what is your estimate of thoseyou see around me?' These, he made answer, are worthycompanions of yourself, fit at least to be ambassadors andleaders of armies. The Ape and all his court, gratified with thelie, commanded that a handsome present be given to the flatterer. On this the truthful Traveler thought to himself, If so great areward be given for a lie, with what gift may not I be rewarded,if, according to my custom, I tell the truth?' The Ape quicklyturned to him. And pray how do I and these my friends around meseem to you?' Thou art, he said, a most excellent Ape, and allthese thy companions after thy example are excellent Apes too.The King of the Apes, enraged at hearing these truths, gave himover to the teeth and claws of his companions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two or three things I know for sure, and one is that I'd rather go naked than wear the coat ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33882]]></link><description><![CDATA[Two or three things I know for sure, and one is that I'd rather go naked than wear the coat the world has made for me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33882</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All life is an experiment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14658]]></link><description><![CDATA[All life is an experiment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14658</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The enjoyment of life would be instantly gone if you removed the possibility of doing something. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22042]]></link><description><![CDATA[The enjoyment of life would be instantly gone if you removed the possibility of doing something.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even I don't wake up looking like Cindy Crawford. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2887]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even I don't wake up looking like Cindy Crawford.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2887</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most people are willing to pay more to be amused than to be educated. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13466]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most people are willing to pay more to be amused than to be educated.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13466</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we desire to avoid insult, we must be able to repel it; if we desire to secure peace, one ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11828]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we desire to avoid insult, we must be able to repel it; if we desire to secure peace, one of the most powerful instruments of our rising prosperity, it must be known, that we are at all times ready for War.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The grave, dread thing! Men shiver when thou'rt named: Nature appalled,  Shakes off her wonted firmness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18206]]></link><description><![CDATA[The grave, dread thing! Men shiver when thou'rt named: Nature appalled,  Shakes off her wonted firmness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the swallows homeward fly, When the roses scattered lie,  When from neither hill or dale,   Chants ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4234]]></link><description><![CDATA[When the swallows homeward fly, When the roses scattered lie,  When from neither hill or dale,   Chants the silvery nightingale:    In these works my bleeding heart     Would to thee its brief impart;      When I thus thy image lose       Can I, ah! can I, e'er know repose?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4234</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[things that give you standing in the community. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35482]]></link><description><![CDATA[things that give you standing in the community.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35482</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing you can't spell will ever work. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57368]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing you can't spell will ever work.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57368</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A good head and a good heart are always a formidable combination. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55106]]></link><description><![CDATA[A good head and a good heart are always a formidable combination.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55106</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All I can do is what I think is right.
