The time came when the Church had ceased to grow, except externally in wealth, power, and prestige; and these are mere outward adornments, or hampering burdens, very likely. They do not imply growth or creativeness. The time came when dogmatism, tyranny, and ignorance strangled the free intellectual activity of the Church, and worldliness destroyed its moral fruitfulness. Then joy spread her wings and flew away. The Christian graces care nothing for names and labels; where the Spirit of the Lord is, there they abide, but not in great Churches that have forgotten Him. How little of joy there is in the character of the religious bigot or fanatic, or in the prudent ecclesiastical statesman! A show of cheerfulness they may cultivate, as they often do; but it is like the crackling of thorns under a pot: we cannot mistake it for the joy of the Lord which is the strength of the true Christian.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8262</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature has placed mankind under the government of two sovereign masters, pain and pleasure... they govern us in all we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53306]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nature has placed mankind under the government of two sovereign masters, pain and pleasure... they govern us in all we do, in all we say, in all we think: every effort we can make to throw off our subjection, will serve but to demonstrate and confirm it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53306</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most people are alive in an earlier time, but you must be alive in our own time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1269]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most people are alive in an earlier time, but you must be alive in our own time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Old age comes on suddenly, and not gradually as is thought. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1883]]></link><description><![CDATA[Old age comes on suddenly, and not gradually as is thought.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1883</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It (rumour) has a hundred tongues, a hundred mouths, a voice of iron. [Lat., Linguae centum sunt, oraque centum  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54567]]></link><description><![CDATA[It (rumour) has a hundred tongues, a hundred mouths, a voice of iron. [Lat., Linguae centum sunt, oraque centum  Ferrea vox.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike--and yet it is the most precious thing we have. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54816]]></link><description><![CDATA[All our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike--and yet it is the most precious thing we have.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54816</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some wee short hour ayont the twal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59314]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some wee short hour ayont the twal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59314</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It will be a challenge; he's very versatile.
