The Ass was left in a stable and had plenty of oats and hay to eat, just as any other Ass would. The Lapdog knew many tricks and was a great favorite with his master, who often fondled him and seldom went out to dine without bringing him home some tidbit to eat. The Ass, on the contrary, had much work to do in grinding the corn-mill and in carrying wood from the forest or burdens from the farm. He often lamented his own hard fate and contrasted it with the luxury and idleness of the Lapdog, till at last one day he broke his cords and halter, and galloped into his master's house, kicking up his heels without measure, and frisking and fawning as well as he could. He next tried to jump about his master as he had seen the Lapdog do, but he broke the table and smashed all the dishes upon it to atoms. He then attempted to lick his master, and jumped upon his back. The servants, hearing the strange hubbub and perceiving the danger of their master, quickly relieved him, and drove out the Ass to his stable with kicks and clubs and cuffs. The Ass, as he returned to his stall beaten nearly to death, thus lamented: I have brought it all on myself! Why could I not have been contented to labor with my companions, and not wish to be idle all the day like that useless little Lapdog!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1545</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3821]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3821</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Start every day off with a smile and get it over with. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56669]]></link><description><![CDATA[Start every day off with a smile and get it over with.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56669</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is high time that the ideal of success should be replaced by the ideal of service. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58139]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is high time that the ideal of success should be replaced by the ideal of service.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The gentleman is not in your books. -Much Ado about Nothing.

From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,  Much pleasure, then from thee much more, must flow,  And soonest our best men with thee do go,  Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery. Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men, And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell,  And poppy, or charms, can make us sleep as well,  And better than thy stroke. Why swell'st thou then? One short sleep past, we wake eternally,  And Death shall be no more: Death, thou shalt die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8096</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Laws and institutions are constantly tending to gravitate.

The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46926</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I write sets of books, but I've also written a lot of orphans. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41206]]></link><description><![CDATA[I write sets of books, but I've also written a lot of orphans.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both togethergo to the making of genius.
