Do such men think that they have delighted us by telling us that they hold our souls to be nothing but a little wind and smoke -- and by saying it in conceited and complacent tones? Is that a thing to say blithely? Is it not rather a thing to say sadly -- as if it were the saddest thing in the world?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't give someone all of your time if they're only gonna give you half of theirs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62952]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't give someone all of your time if they're only gonna give you half of theirs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Really and truly, going independent doesn't change things a lot.
