His road home lay across a stream into which his Ass, making a false step, fell by accident and rose up again with his load considerably lighter, as the water melted the sack.

The Peddler saw through his trick and drove him for the third time to the coast, where he bought a cargo of sponges instead of salt. The Ass, again playing the fool, fell down on purpose when he reached the stream, but the sponges became swollen with water, greatly increasing his load. And thus his trick recoiled on him, for he now carried on his back a double burden.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1558</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we laugh a little too much before games when we are warming up.

And since His desperate diagnosis is so accurate, may not His optimism also justify itself even in me. Well does He know what is in human nature, and yet, knowing the worst, He still has confident hope.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only so much do I know, as I have lived. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14677]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only so much do I know, as I have lived.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're exploiting the s--- out of Comic-Con.
