I ought not to neglect anything or be passionately vehement about anything, for it is dangerous to do the work of the Lord negligently, on the one hand; or, on the other, to appropriate it to ourselves by self-love and false zeal. In this latter case, our actions arise from a principle of self-will: we are eager and anxious for the success, and that under the pretense of seeking the glory of God. O, God, grant me Thy grace to enable me to be faithful in action and resigned in success! My only business is to do Thy will, and to do it as Thy will, not forgetting Thee in the performance of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7537</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Old Rose is dead, that good old man, We ne'er shall see him more;  He used to wear an ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2752]]></link><description><![CDATA[Old Rose is dead, that good old man, We ne'er shall see him more;  He used to wear an old blue coat   All buttoned down before.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2752</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A jest loses its point when the jester laughs himself. [Ger., Des Spass verliert Alles, wenn der Spassmacher selber lacht.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23240]]></link><description><![CDATA[A jest loses its point when the jester laughs himself. [Ger., Des Spass verliert Alles, wenn der Spassmacher selber lacht.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23240</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Maturity is often more absurd than youth and very frequently is most unjust to youth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26582]]></link><description><![CDATA[Maturity is often more absurd than youth and very frequently is most unjust to youth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26582</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You make trade offs: do you want to get everything that's relevant or do you want to miss some things? ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41803]]></link><description><![CDATA[You make trade offs: do you want to get everything that's relevant or do you want to miss some things?

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[You have a choice.
