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 humblest citizen of all the land, when clad in the armor of a righteous cause, is stronger than all ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10350]]></link><description><![CDATA[The humblest citizen of all the land, when clad in the armor of a righteous cause, is stronger than all the hosts of error.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10350</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[True repentance is to cease from sinning. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53840]]></link><description><![CDATA[True repentance is to cease from sinning.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53840</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I haven't thought about that at all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39884]]></link><description><![CDATA[I haven't thought about that at all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39884</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you don'tknow anything about. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21512]]></link><description><![CDATA[The highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you don'tknow anything about.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21512</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the last ten years we have come to realize humans are more like worms than we ever imagined. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30741]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the last ten years we have come to realize humans are more like worms than we ever imagined.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30741</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Valor, gradually overpowered by the delicious poison of sloth, grows torpid. [Lat., Blandoque veneno  Desidiae virtus paullatim evicta senescit.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20338]]></link><description><![CDATA[Valor, gradually overpowered by the delicious poison of sloth, grows torpid. [Lat., Blandoque veneno  Desidiae virtus paullatim evicta senescit.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where tempests never beat nor billows roar. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19088]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where tempests never beat nor billows roar.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19088</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cupid is a casuist, a mystic, and a cabalist,-- Can your lurking thought surprise,  And interpret your device,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17749]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cupid is a casuist, a mystic, and a cabalist,-- Can your lurking thought surprise,  And interpret your device,   . . . .    All things wait for and divine him,--     How shall I dare to malign him?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17749</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can't use tact with a Congressman!

It is not some crack in an otherwise flawless stone. It is, quite spectacularly I think, art which is not based on the subjugation of one half of the species. It is art which will take the great human themes --love, death, heroism, suffering, history itself --and render them fully human. It may also, though perhaps our imaginations are so mutilated now that we are incapable even of the ambition, introduce a new theme, one as great and as rich as those others --should we call it "joy"?.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vengeance is a dish best eaten cold ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60467]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vengeance is a dish best eaten cold]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60467</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Herb is the healing of a nation, alcohol is the destruction. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1991]]></link><description><![CDATA[Herb is the healing of a nation, alcohol is the destruction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is now more significant in the air business which requires us to lease planes for a short period of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38472]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is now more significant in the air business which requires us to lease planes for a short period of time to meet a significant spike in our air business.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38472</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing has such power to broaden the mind as the ability to investigate systematically and truly all that comes under ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23021]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing has such power to broaden the mind as the ability to investigate systematically and truly all that comes under thy observation in life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23021</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mr. Robertson is, of course, no ordinary private citizen. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30105]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mr. Robertson is, of course, no ordinary private citizen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30105</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who believes in nobody knows that he himself is not to be trusted. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9697]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who believes in nobody knows that he himself is not to be trusted.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We Christians must simplify our lives or lose untold treasures on earth and in eternity.
