The intellectual heritage of the race belongs to the minority, and to the minority only. The majority has no more to do with it than it has to do with ecclesiastic politics on Mars.

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[My sole literary ambition is to write one good novel, then retire to my hut in the desert, assume the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26790]]></link><description><![CDATA[My sole literary ambition is to write one good novel, then retire to my hut in the desert, assume the lotus position, compose my mind and senses, and sink into meditation, contemplating my novel]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26790</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be good is noble; but to show others how to be good is nobler and no trouble. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64622]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be good is noble; but to show others how to be good is nobler and no trouble.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64622</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the first time I rode on an elephant and I thoroughly enjoyed the safari. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39001]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is the first time I rode on an elephant and I thoroughly enjoyed the safari.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39001</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8358]]></link><description><![CDATA[Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8358</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Courage is doing what you're afraid to do.
