Perceiving their simplicity, he cast down a huge log into the lake. The Frogs were terrified at the splash occasioned by its fall and hid themselves in the depths of the pool. But as soon as they realized that the huge log was motionless, they swam again to the top of the water, dismissed their fears, climbed up, and began squatting on it in contempt. After some time they began to think themselves ill-treated in the appointment of so inert a Ruler, and sent a second deputation to Jupiter to pray that he would set over them another sovereign. He then gave them an Eel to govern them. When the Frogs discovered his easy good nature, they sent yet a third time to Jupiter to beg him to choose for them still another King. Jupiter, displeased with all their complaints, sent a Heron, who preyed upon the Frogs day by day till there were none left to croak upon the lake.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bird That glads the night had cheer'd the listening groves with sweet complainings. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4250]]></link><description><![CDATA[The bird That glads the night had cheer'd the listening groves with sweet complainings.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4250</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Underneath an apple-tree Sat a maiden and her lover;  And the thoughts within her he   Yearned, in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2937]]></link><description><![CDATA[Underneath an apple-tree Sat a maiden and her lover;  And the thoughts within her he   Yearned, in silence, to discover.    Round them danced the sunbeams bright,     Green the grass-lawn stretched before them      While the apple blossoms white       Hung in rich profusion o'er them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't want him growing up with me working two jobs.

The man of vision and imagination finds it difficult to see the value of those who do no more than plod on faithfully along a well-tried road. The man whose concern is in personal dealing with people and leading them to understand God better finds it difficult to be patient with the theologian or the Christian philosopher whose work is in the quiet of a book-lined study. Yet the truth is that the wholeness which God is working to achieve is never complete in an individual, but through individuals living together as one body, each supplying the deficiencies of the others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7426</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Just as every conviction begins as a whim so does every emancipator serve his apprenticeship as a crank.
