He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest--a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness.

Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60197</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everyone was encouraging to each other.

Romanticizing or lionizing as "individualistic" those people who disregard social cues and inducements increases the danger of head-on collisions with inherent social limits. Decrying various forms of social disapproval is in effect narrowing the warning strip.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56821</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greater part of the world's troubles are due to questions of grammar ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18122]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greater part of the world's troubles are due to questions of grammar]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fare ye well, and give us your applause. [Lat., Vos valete et plaudite.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2928]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fare ye well, and give us your applause. [Lat., Vos valete et plaudite.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2928</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not enough that I should succeed -- others should fail. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22244]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's not enough that I should succeed -- others should fail.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22244</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The shortest and surest way to live with honor in the world is to be in reality what we would ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19702]]></link><description><![CDATA[The shortest and surest way to live with honor in the world is to be in reality what we would appear to be; all human virtues increase and strengthen themselves by the practice and experience of them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19702</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sittings, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27502]]></link><description><![CDATA[And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sittings, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27502</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I keep telling people that big money will not win this race.
