Standing on a projecting rock, he played several tunes in the hope that the fish, attracted by his melody, would of their own accord dance into his net, which he had placed below. At last, having long waited in vain, he laid aside his flute, and casting his net into the sea, made an excellent haul of fish. When he saw them leaping about in the net upon the rock he said: O you most perverse creatures, when I piped you would not dance, but now that I have ceased you do so merrily.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He mouths a sentence as curs mouth a bone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45229]]></link><description><![CDATA[He mouths a sentence as curs mouth a bone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45229</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whether the pitcher hits the stone or the stone hits the pitcher, it goes ill with the pitcher. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48815]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whether the pitcher hits the stone or the stone hits the pitcher, it goes ill with the pitcher.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48815</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Assassination has never changed the history of the world ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3381]]></link><description><![CDATA[Assassination has never changed the history of the world]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3381</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A very merry, dancing, drinking, Laughing, quaffing, and unthinking time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27409]]></link><description><![CDATA[A very merry, dancing, drinking, Laughing, quaffing, and unthinking time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27409</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men have made an idol of luck as an excuse for their own thoughtlessness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52434]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men have made an idol of luck as an excuse for their own thoughtlessness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Try not to become a man of success but a man of value. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65563]]></link><description><![CDATA[Try not to become a man of success but a man of value.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65563</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The crack-brained bobolink courts his crazy mate, Poised on a bulrush tipsy with his weight. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4420]]></link><description><![CDATA[The crack-brained bobolink courts his crazy mate, Poised on a bulrush tipsy with his weight.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4420</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Notice the difference between what happens when a man says to himself, I have failed three times, and what happens ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44194]]></link><description><![CDATA[Notice the difference between what happens when a man says to himself, I have failed three times, and what happens when he says, I am a failure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44194</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mind never fully accepts any convictions that it does not owe to its own efforts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53590]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mind never fully accepts any convictions that it does not owe to its own efforts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is more vulgar than haste. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18793]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is more vulgar than haste.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18793</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is none more lonely than the man who loves only himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25535]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is none more lonely than the man who loves only himself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who interrupts the course of his spiritual exercises and prayer is like a man who allows a bird to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57417]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who interrupts the course of his spiritual exercises and prayer is like a man who allows a bird to escape from his hand;

Where it is possible that fear should exist it is well that it should exist, cause continual uneasiness, and be cast out by nothing less than love.... Until love, which is the truth towards God, is able to cast out fear, it is well that fear should hold; it is a bond, however poor, between that which is and that which creates -- a bond that must be broken, but a bond that can be broken only by the tightening of an infinitely closer bond. Verily God must be terrible to those that are far from Him: for they fear He will do -- yea, is doing -- with them what they do not, cannot desire, and can ill endure... While they are such as they are, there is much in Him that cannot but affright them: they ought, they do well, to fear Him... To remove that fear from their hearts, save by letting them know His love with its purifying fire, a love which for ages, it may be, they cannot know, would be to give them up utterly to the power of evil. Persuade men that fear is a vile thing, that it is an insult to God, that He will have none of it -- while they are yet in love with their own will, and slaves to every movement of passionate impulse -- and what will the consequence be? That they will insult God as a discarded idol, a superstition, a falsehood, as a thing under whose evil influence they have too long groaned, a thing to be cast out and spit upon. After that, how much will they learn of Him?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8084</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[The only way actors could breathe on the sound stage was through an air regulator.] You couldn't get out, ... ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29601]]></link><description><![CDATA[[The only way actors could breathe on the sound stage was through an air regulator.] You couldn't get out, ... because the camera crew was literally bolted in.
