Perceiving their simplicity, he cast down a huge log into the lake. The Frogs were terrified at the splash occasioned by its fall and hid themselves in the depths of the pool. But as soon as they realized that the huge log was motionless, they swam again to the top of the water, dismissed their fears, climbed up, and began squatting on it in contempt. After some time they began to think themselves ill-treated in the appointment of so inert a Ruler, and sent a second deputation to Jupiter to pray that he would set over them another sovereign. He then gave them an Eel to govern them. When the Frogs discovered his easy good nature, they sent yet a third time to Jupiter to beg him to choose for them still another King. Jupiter, displeased with all their complaints, sent a Heron, who preyed upon the Frogs day by day till there were none left to croak upon the lake.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning: just as, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60165]]></link><description><![CDATA[If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning: just as, if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know it was dark.

He has enough light to light him on his way, but there are a great many gaps in his knowledge. When he says, "One day we shall understand", he is by no means always uttering a pious platitude. Quite frequently he is voicing a solid conviction, a genuine facet of hope. At present his vision is severely limited, and that is probably just as well, if his sanity is to be preserved. But when he is free of the limitations of temporal life, he has every hope of being able to know as surely as he is at present known.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love the big fresh starts, the clean slates like birthdays and new years, but I also really like the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66386]]></link><description><![CDATA[I love the big fresh starts, the clean slates like birthdays and new years, but I also really like the idea that we can get up every morning and start over.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66386</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now Cynthia, named fair regent of the night. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43074]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now Cynthia, named fair regent of the night.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43074</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is an illegitimate constitution presented to the people by an untrustworthy government, ...
