His road home lay across a stream into which his Ass, making a false step, fell by accident and rose up again with his load considerably lighter, as the water melted the sack. The Peddler retraced his steps and refilled his panniers with a larger quantity of salt than before. When he came again to the stream, the Ass fell down on purpose in the same spot, and, regaining his feet with the weight of his load much diminished, brayed triumphantly as if he had obtained what he desired. The Peddler saw through his trick and drove him for the third time to the coast, where he bought a cargo of sponges instead of salt. The Ass, again playing the fool, fell down on purpose when he reached the stream, but the sponges became swollen with water, greatly increasing his load. And thus his trick recoiled on him, for he now carried on his back a double burden.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1558</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With the passing of this draft law, international cooperation in battling corruption and other transnational crimes will be made easier. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36227]]></link><description><![CDATA[With the passing of this draft law, international cooperation in battling corruption and other transnational crimes will be made easier.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36227</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Moral power is probably best when it is not used.

The profession of a clergyman is a holy profession, because it is a ministration in holy things, an attendance at the alter.

Every act of goodwill permanently and sensibly increases goodwill. Trifling acts of goodwill are often more efficacious in this way than great ones. A flower given in kindness and at the right time profits more, both to giver and receiver, than some vast material benefit in which the goodwill is hidden by the magnitude of the act. Some little, sensible, individual touch from the hand of our Lord may convert the heart more than the contemplation of His death for us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7855</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain and most fools do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10723]]></link><description><![CDATA[Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain and most fools do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10723</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All autobiography is self-indulgent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3226]]></link><description><![CDATA[All autobiography is self-indulgent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3226</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The wise are wise only because they love.
