But depend upon it, they do not by adding these words, or any words, bring it about that their prayers should be in the name of Christ. To pray in the name of Christ means to pray in such a way as represents Christ. The representative always must speak in the spirit and meaning of those for whom he speaks. If Christ is our representative, that must be because He speaks our wishes, or what we ought to make our wishes; and if we are to pray in the name of Christ, that means that we are, however far off, expressing His wishes and intentions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8373</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And can eternity belong to me, Poor pensioner on the bounties of an hour? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14213]]></link><description><![CDATA[And can eternity belong to me, Poor pensioner on the bounties of an hour?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fidelity is seven-tenths of business success. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15641]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fidelity is seven-tenths of business success.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15641</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man is a very small thing, and the night is very large and full of wonders. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61960]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man is a very small thing, and the night is very large and full of wonders.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61960</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perhaps America will one day go fascist democratically, by popular vote. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47135]]></link><description><![CDATA[Perhaps America will one day go fascist democratically, by popular vote.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47135</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Friendship... is not something you learn in school.
