A Dove sitting on a tree overhanging the water pluckeda leaf and let it fall into the stream close to her. The Antclimbed onto it and floated in safety to the bank. Shortlyafterwards a birdcatcher came and stood under the tree, and laidhis lime-twigs for the Dove, which sat in the branches. The Ant,perceiving his design, stung him in the foot. In pain thebirdcatcher threw down the twigs, and the noise made the Dovetake wing.One good turn deserves another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1497</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To get enough to eat was regarded as an achievement.

It is not humility -- it is petty pride, withholding its simple gifts from the hands of Christ because they are not more pretentious. There are men who would endow colleges, they say, if they were millionaires. They would help in the work of Bible study if they were as gifted as Henry Drummond. They would strive to lead their associates into the Christian life if they had the gifts of Dwight L. Moody. But they are not ready to give what they have and do what they can and be as it has pleased God to make them, in His service -- and that is their condemnation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Before this time to-morrow I shall have gained a peerage, or Westminister Abbey. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60588]]></link><description><![CDATA[Before this time to-morrow I shall have gained a peerage, or Westminister Abbey.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm in the camp that's staying with the stock.
