As, therefore, He is continually making intercession for us all, so ought we to intercede and pray for one another. "A new commandment," saith He, "I give unto you, that ye love one another, as I have loved you. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye love one another." The newness of this precept did not consist in this, that men were commanded to love one another for this was an old precept, both of the law of Moses and of nature. But it was new in this respect, that it was to initiate a new and, till then, unheard-of example of love; it was to love one another as Christ had loved us. And if men are to know that we are disciples of Christ, by thus loving one another according to His new example of love, then it is certain that if we are void of this love we make it as plainly known unto men that we are none of His disciples.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7156</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most powerful symptom of love is a tenderness which becomes at times almost insupportable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64676]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most powerful symptom of love is a tenderness which becomes at times almost insupportable.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64676</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a fountain of youth: It is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring in your life and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62536]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a fountain of youth: It is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring in your life and the lives of people you love]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Native American grandfather talking to his young grandson tells the boy he has two wolves inside of him struggling ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18839]]></link><description><![CDATA[A Native American grandfather talking to his young grandson tells the boy he has two wolves inside of him struggling with each other.

We will have such-a-one, for he sings prettily; we will invite such-a-one to a ball, for he dances well; we will have such-a-one at supper, for he is always joking and laughing; we will ask another because he plays deep at all games, or because he can drink a great deal. These are all vilifying distinctions, mortifying preferences, and exclude all ideas of esteem and regard. Whoever is had (as it is called) in company for the sake of any one thing singly, is singly that thing, and will never be considered in any other light; consequently never respected, let his merits be what they will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think, at a child's birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4265]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think, at a child's birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift would be curiosity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4265</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It took a deadly illness to put me eye to eye with that truth, but it is a truth that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40595]]></link><description><![CDATA[It took a deadly illness to put me eye to eye with that truth, but it is a truth that the country, caught up in its ruthless ambitions and moral decay, can learn on my dime.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40595</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I figured something out in 2004 and last year kind of carried it over.
