(2) There is the danger of one-sidedness by accommodation to the particular tendencies of a particular age. (3) There is the danger of an arrested development, because ecclesiastical authority acting hastily or unguardedly solidifies the one-sidedness or undue accommodation of a particular moment of the Church into a premature and unjustifiable dogma. There is, I venture to think, for all these dangers one remedy, and one remedy only, and that the most old-fashioned; and yet it is with this that is bound up all that is most true, all that is most free, all that is most spiritual in the Church. The remedy to which I refer is the continual recurrence to the original pattern, the continual appeal to antiquity and Scripture. Such an appeal limits the dogmatic authority and in a sense the whole authority of the Church. But it is by the maintenance of this appeal, and only so, that you can safeguard what is, after all, the most important thing, that is, the real power of the Church to be true to its own best spirit, to reassert the original teaching in all its freedom and largeness of application, without being trammelled and contracted by the errors and narrownesses of particular periods.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7911</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We hold our greyhound in our hand, Our falcon on our glove;  But where shall we find leash, or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51113]]></link><description><![CDATA[We hold our greyhound in our hand, Our falcon on our glove;  But where shall we find leash, or band,   For dame that loves to rove?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51113</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You reach a point where you don't work for money. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64820]]></link><description><![CDATA[You reach a point where you don't work for money.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64820</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We want to make this a model for other communities in the future. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33367]]></link><description><![CDATA[We want to make this a model for other communities in the future.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33367</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63351]]></link><description><![CDATA[A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63351</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Basically, we're letting our fan club pick a third of our set. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32469]]></link><description><![CDATA[Basically, we're letting our fan club pick a third of our set.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32469</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's just streamlining the operation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34021]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's just streamlining the operation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34021</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, it is pleasant, with a heart at ease, Just after sunset, or by moonlight skies,  To make the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8905]]></link><description><![CDATA[O, it is pleasant, with a heart at ease, Just after sunset, or by moonlight skies,  To make the shifting clouds be what you please,   Or let the easily persuaded eyes    Own each quaint likeness issuing from the mould     Of a friend's fancy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8905</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Taxation WITH representation ain't so hot either. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15740]]></link><description><![CDATA[Taxation WITH representation ain't so hot either.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15740</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love Mickey Mouse more than any woman I have ever known. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63359]]></link><description><![CDATA[I love Mickey Mouse more than any woman I have ever known.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63359</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good orators, when they are out, they will spit. -As You Like It.
