But to me they are also inert and nostalgic and unlikely to connect you to the real, to that essence art can sometimes achieve, which is permanence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19639</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success is dependent upon the glands - sweat glands. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65473]]></link><description><![CDATA[Success is dependent upon the glands - sweat glands.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65473</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People will make judgments before you even speak based on the way you look.
