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[But when the sun in all his state, Illumed the eastern skies,  She passed through glory's morning gate,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11162]]></link><description><![CDATA[But when the sun in all his state, Illumed the eastern skies,  She passed through glory's morning gate,   And walked in Paradise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let fancy still in my sense in Lethe steep; If it be thus to dream, still let me sleep! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15291]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let fancy still in my sense in Lethe steep; If it be thus to dream, still let me sleep!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15291</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most people I ask little from.

We may conclude, then, that all the promises and predictions in Scripture relative to the future glories of the Jews and of Jerusalem, are to be understood of the Christian church, of which the Jewish church was a figure; and all that is said of feasting, and splendor, and wealth, and worldly greatness and enjoyment, is to be interpreted spiritually of the inward comfort and peace of mind, and "joy of the Holy Ghost", which is promised to sincere Christians in this life, and of the unspeakable happiness prepared for them after death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6842</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To me the charm of an encyclopedia is that it knows and I needn't. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/896]]></link><description><![CDATA[To me the charm of an encyclopedia is that it knows and I needn't.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Positive anything is better than negative nothing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59166]]></link><description><![CDATA[Positive anything is better than negative nothing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59166</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You do have to be fairly selfish when you have a gift.

We should therefore take care not to derive the least portion of it from anywhere else. If we seek salvation, we are taught by the very name of Jesus that it is "of him". If we seek any other gifts of the Spirit, they will be found in his anointing. If we seek strength, it lies in his dominion; if purity, in his conception; if gentleness, it appears in his birth. For by his birth he was made like us in all respects that he might learn to feel our pain. If we seek redemption, it lies in his passion; if acquittal, in his condemnation; if remission of the curse, in his cross; if satisfaction, in his sacrifice; if purification, in his blood; if reconciliation, in his descent into hell; if mortification of the flesh, in his tomb; if newness of life, in his resurrection; if immortality, in the same; if inheritance of the Heavenly Kingdom, in his entrance into heaven; if protection, if security, if abundant supply of all blessings, in his Kingdom; if untroubled expectation of judgment, in the power given to him to judge. In short, since rich store of every kind of good abounds in him, let us drink our fill from this fountain, and from no other.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7546</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Thomas More, Scholar & Martyr, & John Fisher, Bishop & Martyr, 1535  We must always speak of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7732]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Thomas More, Scholar & Martyr, & John Fisher, Bishop & Martyr, 1535  We must always speak of the efficacy of the ministry in such a manner that the entire praise of the work may be reserved for God alone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7732</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I do believe that if it's meant to be, it will be.
