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 last two years it has been working for us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40784]]></link><description><![CDATA[The last two years it has been working for us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40784</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man profits more by the sight of an idiot than by the orations of the learned. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29556]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man profits more by the sight of an idiot than by the orations of the learned.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29556</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only index by which to judge a government or a way of life is by the quality of the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47593]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only index by which to judge a government or a way of life is by the quality of the people it acts upon.
