When self-esteem is low, our resilience in the face of life's adversities is diminished. We crumble before vicissitudes that a healthier sense of self could vanquish. We tend to be more influenced by the desire to avoid pain than to experience joy. Negatives have more power over us than positives.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56826</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I found thee not, O Lord, without, because I erred in seeking thee without that wert within. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53666]]></link><description><![CDATA[I found thee not, O Lord, without, because I erred in seeking thee without that wert within.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53666</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whenever an individual or a business decides that success has been attained, progress stops. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5040]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whenever an individual or a business decides that success has been attained, progress stops.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5040</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One must be poor to know the luxury of giving. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5746]]></link><description><![CDATA[One must be poor to know the luxury of giving.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5746</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I realized that ritual will always mean throwing away something; Destroying our corn or wine upon the altar of our ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53477]]></link><description><![CDATA[I realized that ritual will always mean throwing away something; Destroying our corn or wine upon the altar of our gods.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60151]]></link><description><![CDATA[Make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose.

I mean, how many leftists are animated by a quite reasonable self-loathing? In their hearts they know that they are not going to become scholars or inventors or industrialists or even ordinary good kind people. So they need a way to achieve that smugness for which the left is so justifiably famous. They need a way to achieve self-esteem without merit. Well, there is politics. In an egalitarian world everything will be controlled by politics, and politics requires no merit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He played his best game for us.
