TheChrysalis moved its tail, and thus attracted the attention of the Ant,who then saw for the first time that it was alive. Poor, pitiableanimal! cried the Ant disdainfully. What a sad fate is yours!While I can run hither and thither, at my pleasure, and, if I wish,ascend the tallest tree, you lie imprisoned here in your shell, withpower only to move a joint or two of your scaly tail. The Chrysalisheard all this, but did not try to make any reply. A few days after,when the Ant passed that way again, nothing but the shell remained.Wondering what had become of its contents, he felt himself suddenlyshaded and fanned by the gorgeous wings of a beautiful Butterfly.Behold in me, said the Butterfly, your much-pitied friend! Boastnow of your powers to run and climb as long as you can get me tolisten. So saying, the Butterfly rose in the air, and, borne alongand aloft on the summer breeze, was soon lost to the sight of theAnt forever.Appearances are deceptive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1505</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Taking into account the good relations between Russia and Iran, I hope that together we can overcome this crisis which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35732]]></link><description><![CDATA[Taking into account the good relations between Russia and Iran, I hope that together we can overcome this crisis which has arisen recently.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35732</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing that exasperates people more than a display of superior ability or brilliance in conversation.

This supposition rests upon a misunderstanding of what is meant by "the Kingdom of God"... The Kingdom itself is not something to be "furthered" or "built" by men's efforts. It is something which we are invited to recognize as already present, after a manner, in the life and work of Jesus. It is something to be inherited or entered into by those who believe. The task of the Church, in other words, is not to set the stage for a better world than this one but to draw the curtain from it, to reveal something that is already there.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7818</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are, each of us angels with only one wing; and we can only fly by embracing one another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25827]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are, each of us angels with only one wing; and we can only fly by embracing one another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25827</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are convinced that the all-new Volvo S80 will be a very strong contender that will win over many new ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35186]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are convinced that the all-new Volvo S80 will be a very strong contender that will win over many new customers.
