Be daily, therefore, on your knees, in a solemn deliberate performance of this devotion, praying for others in such forms, with such length, importunity, and earnestness, as you use for yourself; and you will find all little, ill-natured passions die away, your heart grow great and generous, delighting in the common happiness of others, as you used only to delight in your own... It was this holy intercession that raised Christians to such a state of mutual love, as far exceeded all that had been praised and admired in human friendship. And when the same spirit of intercession is again in the world, when Christianity has the same power over the hearts of people that it then had, this holy friendship will be again in fashion, and Christians will be again the wonder of the world, for that exceeding love which they bear to one another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7442</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When your self-worth goes up, your net worth goes up with it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22429]]></link><description><![CDATA[When your self-worth goes up, your net worth goes up with it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you're not using your smile, you're like a man with a million dollars in the bank and no checkbook. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26854]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you're not using your smile, you're like a man with a million dollars in the bank and no checkbook.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26854</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It conflicts directly with the mission of the church to assist people who come to us and are in need. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39987]]></link><description><![CDATA[It conflicts directly with the mission of the church to assist people who come to us and are in need.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39987</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mankind are governed more by their feelings than by reason. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15550]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mankind are governed more by their feelings than by reason.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15550</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most powerful agent of growth and transformation is something much more basic than any technique: a change of heart. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5575]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most powerful agent of growth and transformation is something much more basic than any technique: a change of heart. . -John Welwood.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5575</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Child abuse casts a shadow the length of a lifetime. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5930]]></link><description><![CDATA[Child abuse casts a shadow the length of a lifetime.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5930</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The one who overcomes egotism rids themselves of the most stubborn obstacle that blocks the way to all true greatness ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13671]]></link><description><![CDATA[The one who overcomes egotism rids themselves of the most stubborn obstacle that blocks the way to all true greatness and all true happiness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Drugs are a waste of time.
