A Dove sitting on a tree overhanging the water pluckeda leaf and let it fall into the stream close to her. The Antclimbed onto it and floated in safety to the bank. Shortlyafterwards a birdcatcher came and stood under the tree, and laidhis lime-twigs for the Dove, which sat in the branches. The Ant,perceiving his design, stung him in the foot. In pain thebirdcatcher threw down the twigs, and the noise made the Dovetake wing.One good turn deserves another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1497</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The goal is to unify AOL Time Warner, to sharpen its focus, capture synergies for growth and strengthen the integration ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34289]]></link><description><![CDATA[The goal is to unify AOL Time Warner, to sharpen its focus, capture synergies for growth and strengthen the integration of the company.

We invoke the true God for the Emperor. Even if he persecute us, we are bidden to pray for them that persecute us, as you can read in our books, which are not hidden, which you often get hold of. We pray for him because the Empire lies between us and the end of the world. We count the Caesars to be God's vice-regents and swear by their safety (not by their genius, as required). As for loyalty, Caesar really is more ours than yours; for it was our God who set him up. It is for his own good, that we refuse to call the Emperor God; Father of his Country is a better title. No Christian has ever made a plot against a Caesar; the famous conspirators and assassins were heathen, one and all. Piety, religion, faith are our best offering of loyalty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6844</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't understand people who don't like good production.
