One of the Apes, who had raised himself to beking, commanded them to be seized and brought before him, that hemight know what was said of him among men. He ordered at thesame time that all the Apes be arranged in a long row on hisright hand and on his left, and that a throne be placed for him,as was the custom among men. After these preparations hesignified that the two men should be brought before him, andgreeted them with this salutation: What sort of a king do I seemto you to be, O strangers?' The Lying Traveler replied, You seemto me a most mighty king. And what is your estimate of thoseyou see around me?' These, he made answer, are worthycompanions of yourself, fit at least to be ambassadors andleaders of armies. The Ape and all his court, gratified with thelie, commanded that a handsome present be given to the flatterer. On this the truthful Traveler thought to himself, If so great areward be given for a lie, with what gift may not I be rewarded,if, according to my custom, I tell the truth?' The Ape quicklyturned to him. And pray how do I and these my friends around meseem to you?' Thou art, he said, a most excellent Ape, and allthese thy companions after thy example are excellent Apes too.The King of the Apes, enraged at hearing these truths, gave himover to the teeth and claws of his companions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sailing round the world in a dirty gondola oh, to be back in the land of Coca-Cola! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59604]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sailing round the world in a dirty gondola oh, to be back in the land of Coca-Cola!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59604</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more I train the more I realize I have more speed in me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57567]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more I train the more I realize I have more speed in me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Neurosis is the way of avoiding non-being by avoiding being ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44401]]></link><description><![CDATA[Neurosis is the way of avoiding non-being by avoiding being]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44401</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are born at a given moment, in a given place and, like vintage years of wine, we have the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9341]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are born at a given moment, in a given place and, like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and of the season of which we are born.
