An Eagle, hovering near, heard her lamentation and demanded what reward she would give him if he would take her aloft and float her in the air. I will give you, she said, all the riches of the Red Sea. I will teach you to fly then, said the Eagle; and taking her up in his talons he carried her almost to the clouds suddenly he let her go, and she fell on a lofty mountain, dashing her shell to pieces. The Tortoise exclaimed in the moment of death: I have deserved my present fate; for what had I to do with wings and clouds, who can with difficulty move about on the earth?' If men had all they wished, they would be often ruined.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Thomas Aquinas, Priest, Teacher of the Faith, 1274  It is clear that he does not pray, who, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8481]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Thomas Aquinas, Priest, Teacher of the Faith, 1274  It is clear that he does not pray, who, far from uplifting himself to God, requires that God shall lower Himself to him, and who resorts to prayer not to stir the man in us to will what God wills, but only to persuade God to will what the man in us wills.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8481</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I want to say unequivocally that safety is our number one priority.
