Probably all you'll think about him is that he seemed a cheerful, intelligent chap who took a real interest in what you said to him. If you do dislike him, it will be because you feel a bit envious of anyone who seems to enjoy life so easily. He won't be thinking about himself at all. There I must stop. If anyone would like to acquire humility, I can, I think, tell him the first step. The first step is to realize that one is proud. And a biggish step, too. At least, nothing whatever can be done before it. If you think you're not conceited, it means you are very conceited indeed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18408]]></link><description><![CDATA[Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18408</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Just remember, once you're over the hill you begin to pick up speed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1799]]></link><description><![CDATA[Just remember, once you're over the hill you begin to pick up speed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1799</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hee that blowes in the dust fills his eyes with it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49437]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hee that blowes in the dust fills his eyes with it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Historically, very few children have thought of entrepreneurship as a career choice.
