They soon began to boast of their respective superiority to each other in strength and prowess. As they were disputing, they passed a statue carved in stone, which represented a Lion strangled by a Man. The traveler pointed to it and said: See there! How strong we are, and how we prevail over even the king of beasts. The Lion replied: This statue was made by one of you men. If we Lions knew how to erect statues, you would see the Man placed under the paw of the Lion. One story is good, till another is told.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1533</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[) Music is the balm that heals the forlorn ache of a distant star. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18902]]></link><description><![CDATA[) Music is the balm that heals the forlorn ache of a distant star.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18902</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What makes a river so restful to people is that it doesn't have any doubt - it is sure to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43911]]></link><description><![CDATA[What makes a river so restful to people is that it doesn't have any doubt - it is sure to get where it is going, and it doesn't want to go anywhere else.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43911</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fact remains that the overwhelming majority of people who have become wealthy have become so thanks to work they ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21534]]></link><description><![CDATA[The fact remains that the overwhelming majority of people who have become wealthy have become so thanks to work they found profoundly absorbing.

And this is as much to secure men from mistake in matters of belief as God hath afforded to keep men from sin in matters of practice. He hath made no effectual and infallible provision that men shall not sin; and yet it would puzzle any man to give a good reason why God should take more care to secure men against errors in belief than against sin and wickedness in their lives.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This chair was their first venture into furniture making.
