Probably all you'll think about him is that he seemed a cheerful, intelligent chap who took a real interest in what you said to him. If you do dislike him, it will be because you feel a bit envious of anyone who seems to enjoy life so easily. He won't be thinking about himself at all. There I must stop. If anyone would like to acquire humility, I can, I think, tell him the first step. The first step is to realize that one is proud. And a biggish step, too. At least, nothing whatever can be done before it. If you think you're not conceited, it means you are very conceited indeed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What you're seeing is a glut of gently used vehicles, and that's putting pressure on all vehicle prices. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38033]]></link><description><![CDATA[What you're seeing is a glut of gently used vehicles, and that's putting pressure on all vehicle prices.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38033</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Away!
