When he failed to heal their disputes by his exhortations, he determined to give them a practical illustration of the evils of disunion; and for this purpose he one day told them to bring him a bundle of sticks.

He next opened the faggot, took the sticks separately, one by one, and again put them into his sons' hands, upon which they broke them easily. He then addressed them in these words: My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this faggot, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies; but if you are divided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our lives are to be used and thus to be lived as fully as possible, and truly it seems that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16312]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our lives are to be used and thus to be lived as fully as possible, and truly it seems that we are never so alive as when we concern ourselves with other people.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16312</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anybody can cut prices, but it takes brains to produce a better article. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15907]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anybody can cut prices, but it takes brains to produce a better article.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15907</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've been very lucky with them.
