Shortly afterwards, finding that he hadheavier loads to carry and harder work in the brick-field, hepetitioned for another change of master. Jupiter, telling himthat it would be the last time that he could grant his request,ordained that he be sold to a tanner. The Ass found that he hadfallen into worse hands, and noting his master's occupation,said, groaning: It would have been better for me to have beeneither starved by the one, or to have been overworked by theother of my former masters, than to have been bought by mypresent owner, who will even after I am dead tan my hide, andmake me useful to him.He that finds discontentment in one place is not likely to find happiness in another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1500</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ah, yes, divorce ... from the Latin word meaning to rip out a man's genitals through his wallet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8970]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ah, yes, divorce ... from the Latin word meaning to rip out a man's genitals through his wallet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8970</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The lower one speaks the closer a woman listens. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41433]]></link><description><![CDATA[The lower one speaks the closer a woman listens.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41433</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When people talk, listen completely.
