As he was wandering about there he came upon aLion lying down moaning and groaning. At first he turned to flee,but finding that the Lion did not pursue him, he turned back andwent up to him. As he came near, the Lion put out his paw, whichwas all swollen and bleeding, and Androcles found that a hugethorn had got into it, and was causing all the pain. He pulledout the thorn and bound up the paw of the Lion, who was soon ableto rise and lick the hand of Androcles like a dog. Then the Liontook Androcles to his cave, and every day used to bring him meatfrom which to live. But shortly afterwards both Androcles and theLion were captured, and the slave was sentenced to be thrown tothe Lion, after the latter had been kept without food for severaldays. The Emperor and all his Court came to see the spectacle,and Androcles was led out into the middle of the arena. Soon theLion was let loose from his den, and rushed bounding and roaringtowards his victim. But as soon as he came near to Androcles herecognised his friend, and fawned upon him, and licked his handslike a friendly dog. The Emperor, surprised at this, summonedAndrocles to him, who told him the whole story. Whereupon theslave was pardoned and freed, and the Lion let loose to his nativeforest.Gratitude is the sign of noble souls.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1496</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Human love is often but the encounter of two weaknesses. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61352]]></link><description><![CDATA[Human love is often but the encounter of two weaknesses.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[More solid things do not show the complexion of the times so well as Ballads and Libels. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3700]]></link><description><![CDATA[More solid things do not show the complexion of the times so well as Ballads and Libels.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3700</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is a big rival.

The trouble with steeling yourself against the harshness of reality is that the same steel that secures your life against being destroyed secures your life also against being opened up and transformed by the holy power that life itself comes from.
