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[No statesman e'er will find it worth his pains To tax our labours and excise our brains. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57840]]></link><description><![CDATA[No statesman e'er will find it worth his pains To tax our labours and excise our brains.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57840</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Taste this, and be henceforth among the Gods thyself a Goddess. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58929]]></link><description><![CDATA[Taste this, and be henceforth among the Gods thyself a Goddess.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you had taken off the shoe then, at length you would feel in what part it pinched you. [Lat., ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56206]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you had taken off the shoe then, at length you would feel in what part it pinched you. [Lat., Si calceum induisses, tum demum sentires qua parte te urgeret.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The rainy days a man saves for usually seem to arrive during his vacation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60315]]></link><description><![CDATA[The rainy days a man saves for usually seem to arrive during his vacation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60315</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We would do a tour into the elementary schools every year, and then we did another kind of program where ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28886]]></link><description><![CDATA[We would do a tour into the elementary schools every year, and then we did another kind of program where upper level students were brought into E.J.

Its glorification of mere chance is a denial of the Divine order of nature. To risk money haphazard is to disregard the insistence of the Church in every age of living faith that possessions are a trust, and that men must account to God for their use. The persistent appeal to covetousness is fundamentally opposed to the unselfishness which was taught by Jesus Christ and by the New Testament as a whole. The attempt (which is inseparable from gambling) to make a profit out of the inevitable loss and possible suffering of others is the antithesis of that love of one's neighbour on which our Lord insisted.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7115</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Children are natural mimics: they act like their parents in spite of every attempt to teach them good manners. -Anonymous. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45503]]></link><description><![CDATA[Children are natural mimics: they act like their parents in spite of every attempt to teach them good manners. -Anonymous.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45503</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Behold, I show you a mystery; we shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5569]]></link><description><![CDATA[Behold, I show you a mystery; we shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye... -Corinthians.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hell is paved with priests' skulls. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19129]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hell is paved with priests' skulls.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19129</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief.
