The Hare, believing her assertion to be simply impossible, assented to the proposal; and they agreed that the Fox should choose the course and fix the goal. On the day appointed for the race the two started together. The Tortoise never for a moment stopped, but went on with a slow but steady pace straight to the end of the course. The Hare, lying down by the wayside, fell fast asleep.

Only in prayer do we achieve that complete and harmonious assembly of body, mind and spirit which gives the frail human reed its unshakable strengths.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6901</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only if, for some reason, the government falls, there is an election and the Liberals win, Mr. Graham presumably would ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32984]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only if, for some reason, the government falls, there is an election and the Liberals win, Mr. Graham presumably would lead them into an election should that be held.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32984</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When 'Omer smote 'is bloomin' lyre, He'd 'eard men sing by land an' sea;  An' what he thought 'e ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46641]]></link><description><![CDATA[When 'Omer smote 'is bloomin' lyre, He'd 'eard men sing by land an' sea;  An' what he thought 'e might require,   'E went an' took--the same as me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46641</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sexual regions constitute a particularly vulnerable spot, and remain so even in man, and the need for their protection ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52126]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sexual regions constitute a particularly vulnerable spot, and remain so even in man, and the need for their protection which thus exists conflicts with the prominent display required for sexual allurement.
