Grieving over his loss, the Father resolved to kill the Snake. The next day, when it came out of its hole for food, he took up his axe, but by swinging too hastily, missed its head and cut off only the end of its tail. After some time the Cottager, afraid that the Snake would bite him also, endeavored to make peace, and placed some bread and salt in the hole. The Snake, slightly hissing, said: There can henceforth be no peace between us; for whenever I see you I shall remember the loss of my tail, and whenever you see me you will be thinking of the death of your son. No one truly forgets injuries in the presence of him who caused the injury.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no remedy for time misspent; No healing for the waste of idleness,  Whose very languor is a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20351]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no remedy for time misspent; No healing for the waste of idleness,  Whose very languor is a punishment   Heavier than active souls can feel or guess.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20351</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ah Mozart!

Try as he may, he can only let his eyes wander distractedly from one to the other. But there is a place at which God and the cosmic reality are reconciled, a place at which God and man have become one. That and that alone is what enables man to set his eyes upon God and the world at the same time. This place does not lie somewhere out beyond reality in the realm of ideas. It lies in the midst of history as a divine miracle. It lies in Jesus Christ, the reconciler of the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Keep your words sweet -- you may have to eat them.
