I am very middling, replied the Lion, but why do you stand without? Pray enter within to talk with me. No, thank you, said the Fox. I notice that there are many prints of feet entering your cave, but I see no trace of any returning. He is wise who is warned by the misfortunes of others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1543</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man ought to be twice tried for the same offence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50556]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man ought to be twice tried for the same offence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50556</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At the start of the year, I pray for the happiness of the Japanese people and peace in the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34522]]></link><description><![CDATA[At the start of the year, I pray for the happiness of the Japanese people and peace in the world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34522</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There may be 50 ways to leave your lover, but there are only 4 ways out of this airplane... ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1972]]></link><description><![CDATA[There may be 50 ways to leave your lover, but there are only 4 ways out of this airplane...]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1972</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A righteous man regardeth the life of this beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48639]]></link><description><![CDATA[A righteous man regardeth the life of this beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48639</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How inexpressible is the meanness of being a hypocrite! how horrible is it to be a mischievous and malignant hypocrite. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20240]]></link><description><![CDATA[How inexpressible is the meanness of being a hypocrite! how horrible is it to be a mischievous and malignant hypocrite.   - Voltaire (Francois Marie Arouet Voltaire),]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20240</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A wafer fab (fabrication plant) is something very complex and a difficult business to run and operate, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32193]]></link><description><![CDATA[A wafer fab (fabrication plant) is something very complex and a difficult business to run and operate,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man is physically as well as metaphysically a thing of shreds and patches, borrowed unequally from good and bad ancestors, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20004]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man is physically as well as metaphysically a thing of shreds and patches, borrowed unequally from good and bad ancestors, and a misfit from the start.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20004</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[See, how these rascals use me!
