Maxim 15
 
 
  A fool is pleased by flattery like the inflated heel of a corpse
that has the appearance of fatness.
 
 
        Take care not to listen to the voice of a flatterer
        Who expects cheaply to derive profit from thee.
        If one day thou failest to satisfy his wishes
        He enumerates two hundred faults of thine.
