He returned to his den, and lying down there, pretended to be sick, taking care that his sickness should be publicly known. The beasts expressed their sorrow, and came one by one to his den, where the Lion devoured them. After many of the beasts had thus disappeared, the Fox discovered the trick and presenting himself to the Lion, stood on the outside of the cave, at a respectful distance, and asked him how he was. I am very middling, replied the Lion, but why do you stand without? Pray enter within to talk with me. No, thank you, said the Fox. I notice that there are many prints of feet entering your cave, but I see no trace of any returning. He is wise who is warned by the misfortunes of others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1543</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He grieves more than is necessary who grieves before any cause for sorrow has arisen. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51147]]></link><description><![CDATA[He grieves more than is necessary who grieves before any cause for sorrow has arisen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51147</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When hospitality becomes an art, it loses its very soul. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18441]]></link><description><![CDATA[When hospitality becomes an art, it loses its very soul.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now is the winter of our discontent Made glorious summer by this sun of York, And all the clouds that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55997]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now is the winter of our discontent Made glorious summer by this sun of York, And all the clouds that loured upon our house In the deep bosom of the ocean buried. Now are our brows bound with victorious wreaths, Our bruised arms hung up for monuments, Our stern alarums changed to merry meetings, Our dreadful marches to delightful measures. Grim-visaged war hath smoothed his wrinkled front; And now, instead of mounting barbed steeds To fright the souls of fearful adversaries, He capers nimbly in a lady's chamber To the lascivious pleasing of a lute. But I, that am not shaped for sportive tricks, Nor made to court an amorous looking-glass; I, that am rudely stamped, and want love's majesty To strut before a wanton ambling nymph; I, that am curtailed of this fair proportion, Cheated of feature by dissembling nature, Deformed, unfinished, sent before my time Into this breathing world, scarce half made up, And that so lamely and unfashionable That dogs bark at me as I halt by them,— Why, I, in this weak piping time of peace, Have no delight to pass away the time, Unless to spy my shadow in the sun. -King Richard III. Act i. Sc. 1.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55997</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The East bow'd low before the blast, In patient, deep disdain.  She let the legions thunder past,   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10205]]></link><description><![CDATA[The East bow'd low before the blast, In patient, deep disdain.  She let the legions thunder past,   And plunged in thought again.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where'er I roam, whatever realms to see, My heart untravelled, fondly turns to thee;  Still to my brother turns, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/141]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where'er I roam, whatever realms to see, My heart untravelled, fondly turns to thee;  Still to my brother turns, with ceaseless pain,   And drags at each remove a lengthening chain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/141</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The highest condition takes rise in the lowest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3965]]></link><description><![CDATA[The highest condition takes rise in the lowest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3965</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think psychedelics play a major part in what we do, but having said that, I feel that if somebody's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13025]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think psychedelics play a major part in what we do, but having said that, I feel that if somebody's going to experiment with those things they really need to educate themselves about them. People just taking the chemicals and diving in without having any kind of preparation about what they're about to experience tend to have no frame of reference, so they're missing everything flying by and all these new perspectives. It's just a waste. They reach a little bit of spiritual enlightenment, but they end up going, 'Well, now I need that drug to get back there again.' The trick is to use the drugs once to get there, and maybe spend the next ten years trying to get back there without the drug.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13025</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's no longer looking for a Soviet division; the threat is now about a person, ...

The real questions refuse to be placated. They barge into your life at the times when it seems most important for them to stay away. They are the questions asked most frequently and answered most inadequately, the ones that reveal their true natures slowly, reluctantly, most often against your will. -Ingrid Bengis.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12245</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Can heavenly breasts such stormy passions feel? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51785]]></link><description><![CDATA[Can heavenly breasts such stormy passions feel?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51785</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Andrew Altman full employment act. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29247]]></link><description><![CDATA[Andrew Altman full employment act.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Well, I suppose I can give your career a bit of a leg-up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40779]]></link><description><![CDATA[Well, I suppose I can give your career a bit of a leg-up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40779</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Utility is our national shibboleth: the savior of the American businessman is fact and his uterine half-brother, statistics. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15746]]></link><description><![CDATA[Utility is our national shibboleth: the savior of the American businessman is fact and his uterine half-brother, statistics.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15746</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You cannot believe in honor until you have achieved it, better keep yourself clean and bright; you are the window ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19701]]></link><description><![CDATA[You cannot believe in honor until you have achieved it, better keep yourself clean and bright; you are the window through which you must see the world]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19701</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[February is a dry month anyway.
