A man may love a women and not win her; but it would be very odd if the phenomenon called "falling in love" occurred in a sexless world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15266]]></link><description><![CDATA[A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a unique moment for Afghanistan.
