A Fox, seeing this, longed to possess the meat himself, and by a wily stratagem succeeded. How handsome is the Crow, he exclaimed, in the beauty of her shape and in the fairness of her complexion! Oh, if her voice were only equal to her beauty, she would deservedly be considered the Queen of Birds! This he said deceitfully; but the Crow, anxious to refute the reflection cast upon her voice, set up a loud caw and dropped the flesh. The Fox quickly picked it up, and thus addressed the Crow: My good Crow, your voice is right enough, but your wit is wanting.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1598</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more skilful the gambler, the worse the man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51637]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more skilful the gambler, the worse the man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51637</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What has always made a hell on earth has been that man has tried to make it his heaven. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62868]]></link><description><![CDATA[What has always made a hell on earth has been that man has tried to make it his heaven.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62868</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Delay is a great procuress ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11839]]></link><description><![CDATA[Delay is a great procuress]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11839</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A New Year's resolution is something that goes in one year and out the other. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64512]]></link><description><![CDATA[A New Year's resolution is something that goes in one year and out the other.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64512</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Chad, Abbot of Lastingham, Bishop of Lichfield, Missionary, 672  God is always present and always working towards ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6951]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Chad, Abbot of Lastingham, Bishop of Lichfield, Missionary, 672  God is always present and always working towards the life of the soul and its deliverance from captivity under flesh and blood. But this inward work of God, though never ceasing or altering, is yet always and only hindered by the activity of our own nature and faculties, by bad men through their obedience to earthly passions and by good men through their striving to be good in their own way, by their natural strength and a multiplicity of holy labours and contrivances. Both these sorts of people obstruct the work of God upon their souls. For we can cooperate with God no other way than by submitting to the work of God, and seeking, and leaving ourselves to it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6951</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yes, we have injected UF6 gas into a limited number of centrifuge machines but it is even less than what ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35716]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yes, we have injected UF6 gas into a limited number of centrifuge machines but it is even less than what is needed for a pilot project.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I will say that the prison regime is rather a good one for a writer because you have plenty of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42052]]></link><description><![CDATA[I will say that the prison regime is rather a good one for a writer because you have plenty of time to write.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42052</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["The Bible," we are told sometimes, "gives us such a beautiful picture of what we should be."
