A Goat, overcome with thirst, came to the same well, and seeing the Fox, inquired if the water was good. Concealing his sad plight under a merry guise, the Fox indulged in a lavish praise of the water, saying it was excellent beyond measure, and encouraging him to descend. The Goat, mindful only of his thirst, thoughtlessly jumped down, but just as he drank, the Fox informed him of the difficulty they were both in and suggested a scheme for their common escape. If, said he, you will place your forefeet upon the wall and bend your head, I will run up your back and escape, and will help you out afterwards. The Goat readily assented and the Fox leaped upon his back. Steadying himself with the Goat's horns, he safely reached the mouth of the well and made off as fast as he could. When the Goat upbraided him for breaking his promise, he turned around and cried out, You foolish old fellow! If you had as many brains in your head as you have hairs in your beard, you would never have gone down before you had inspected the way up, nor have exposed yourself to dangers from which you had no means of escape. Look before you leap.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a violence that liberates, and a violence that enslaves; there is a violence that is moral and a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60690]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a violence that liberates, and a violence that enslaves; there is a violence that is moral and a violence that is immoral.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60690</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It involves a lot of monitoring. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40827]]></link><description><![CDATA[It involves a lot of monitoring.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40827</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ilk cowslip cup shall kep a tear. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10536]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ilk cowslip cup shall kep a tear.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The difference between a man and his valet: they both smoke the same cigars, but only one pays for them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12216]]></link><description><![CDATA[The difference between a man and his valet: they both smoke the same cigars, but only one pays for them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The moon pull'd off her veil of light, That hides her face by day from sight  (Mysterious veil, of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43064]]></link><description><![CDATA[The moon pull'd off her veil of light, That hides her face by day from sight  (Mysterious veil, of brightness made,)   That's both her lustre and her shade),    And in the lantern of the night,     With shining horns hung out her light.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43064</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Science can teach us, and I think our own hearts can teach us, no longer to look around for imaginary ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54785]]></link><description><![CDATA[Science can teach us, and I think our own hearts can teach us, no longer to look around for imaginary supports, no longer to invent allies in the sky, but rather to look to our own efforts here below to make this world a fit place to live in, instead]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54785</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He didn't see a lot of shots, but he played neat and tidy and was strong in the third period. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32795]]></link><description><![CDATA[He didn't see a lot of shots, but he played neat and tidy and was strong in the third period.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32795</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fat paunches have lean pates, and dainty bits Make rich the ribs, but backrout quite the wits. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13267]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fat paunches have lean pates, and dainty bits Make rich the ribs, but backrout quite the wits.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13267</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am not judged by the number of times I fail, but by the number of times I succeed; and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44282]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am not judged by the number of times I fail, but by the number of times I succeed; and the number of times I succeed is in direct proportion to the number of times I can fail and keep on trying.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Persevere in virtue and diligence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12295]]></link><description><![CDATA[Persevere in virtue and diligence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12295</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mourn not the dead that in the cool earth lie, but rather mourn the apathetic, throng the coward and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2696]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mourn not the dead that in the cool earth lie, but rather mourn the apathetic, throng the coward and the meek who see the world's great anguish and its wrong, and dare not speak.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2696</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Virtue is bold, and goodness never fearful. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64248]]></link><description><![CDATA[Virtue is bold, and goodness never fearful.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?
