With them he trapped a Stork that had fractured his leg in the net and was earnestly beseeching the Farmer to spare his life. Pray save me, Master, he said, and let me go free this once. My broken limb should excite your pity. Besides, I am no Crane, I am a Stork, a bird of excellent character; and see how I love and slave for my father and mother. Look too, at my feathers-- they are not the least like those of a Crane.  The Farmer laughed aloud and said, It may be all as you say, I only know this: I have taken you with these robbers, the Cranes, and you must die in their company. Birds of a feather flock together.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1526</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The government of Chinahas become likeUK and US a pirateof innocent kidnappedpharmaceutically abused primates. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20929]]></link><description><![CDATA[The government of Chinahas become likeUK and US a pirateof innocent kidnappedpharmaceutically abused primates.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A cobbler, . . . produced several new grins of his own invention, having been used to cut faces for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56200]]></link><description><![CDATA[A cobbler, . . . produced several new grins of his own invention, having been used to cut faces for many years together over his last.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56200</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't like to lose, and that isn't so much because it is just a football game, but because defeat ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57745]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't like to lose, and that isn't so much because it is just a football game, but because defeat means the failure to reach your objective. I don't want a football player who doesn't take defeat to heart, who laughs it off with the thought, 'Oh, well, there's another Saturday.' The trouble in American life today, in business as well as in sports, is that too many people are afraid of competition.
