This unification of speaker and listener is actually and extension and enlargement of ourselves, and new knowledge is always gained from this. Moreover, since true listening involves bracketing, a setting aside of the self, it also temporarily involves a total acceptance of the other. Sensing this acceptance, the speaker will fell less and less vulnerable and more and more inclined to open up the inner recesses of his or her mind to the listener. As this happens, speaker and listener begin to appreciate each other more and more, and the duet dance of love is begun again. -M. Scott Peck.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The magic of first love is our ignorance that it can ever end ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16044]]></link><description><![CDATA[The magic of first love is our ignorance that it can ever end]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16044</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[First we form habits, then they form us.

Let us pray then with faith, and not lose the fruits of our prayers by a wavering uncertainty which, as St. James testifies, hinders the success of them. The same apostle advises us to pray when we are in trouble because thereby we should find consolation; yet we are so wretched that this heavenly employment is often a burden instead of a comfort to us. The lukewarmness of our prayers is the source of all our other infidelities.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6650</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They say I was a bad Batman, that it was my fault, that I buried the franchise.
