Even though much of what we have exists only as a series of ones and zeroes somewhere in the information sphere, we do get paper copies and we should hang on to those. The movie 'The Net,' I think, makes a very intriguing point, about this very computer literate protagonist who has few human connections, and this is precisely the reason she's vulnerable to the kind of attack she suffers. It seems to me that if we keep that in mind we'll be well served.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38707</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How goes it now, sir?

When, after a few years or a few months of a relationship, we find that we're still unfulfilled, we blame our partners and take up with somebody more promising. This can go on and on--series polygamy--until we admit that while a partner can add sweet dimensions to our lives, we, each of us, are responsible for our own fulfillment. Nobody else can provide it for us, and to believe otherwise is to delude ourselves dangerously and to program for eventual failure every relationship we enter.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53256</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Desire is the essence of a man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11986]]></link><description><![CDATA[Desire is the essence of a man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11986</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In avoiding one evil we fall into another, if we use not discretion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50270]]></link><description><![CDATA[In avoiding one evil we fall into another, if we use not discretion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50270</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Too much agreement kills a chat. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1918]]></link><description><![CDATA[Too much agreement kills a chat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25828]]></link><description><![CDATA[To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The past is behind, just learn from it.

Here St. Paul calls flesh (as does Christ in John 3) everything born of flesh, i.e. the whole human being with body and soul, reason and senses, since everything in him tends toward the flesh. That is why you should know enough to call that person "fleshly" who, without grace, fabricates, teaches and chatters about high spiritual matters. You can learn the same thing from Galatians, chapter 5, where St. Paul calls heresy and hatred works of the flesh. And in Romans, chapter 8, he says that, through the flesh, the law is weakened. He says this, not of unchastity, but of all sins, most of all of unbelief, which is the most spiritual of vices.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8273</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man must drive his energy, not be driven by it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22218]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man must drive his energy, not be driven by it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The M-7 is the best performing car that Metro-North has ever had.
