You know that the other person does remember. Thus, the past is part of the present as long as the other person lives.

The verdict you pronounce upon the source of your livelihood is the verdict you pronounce upon your life. If the source is corrupt, you have damned your own existence. Did you get your money by fraud? By pandering to men's vices or men's stupidity? By catering to fools, in the hope of getting more than your ability deserves? By lowering your standards? By doing work you despise for purchasers your scorn? If so, then your money will not give you a moment's or a penny's worth of joy. Then all the things you buy will become, not a tribute to you, but a reproach; not an achievement, but a reminder of shame. Then you'll scream that money is evil. Evil, because it would not pinch-hit for your self-respect? Evil, because it would not let you enjoy your depravity? Is this the root of your hatred of money?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42974</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men are born equal but they are also born different. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14122]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men are born equal but they are also born different.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They held it in conjunction with the Orange Festival, and the farmers would put on displays.
