The History of Our Shakespeare Club (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The History of Our Shakespeare Club Christian Church, and the principles which should form the bond of union of its members, it may at least be said that his protest against the dominance of any theological creed or ecclesiastical formulary was in keeping with the whole tenour of his teaching. The principles which he professed he carried out in his own conduct. Although regarded by many of his friends and associates with an admiration amounting to reverence, no one met with any difficulty in expressing Opinions whether in agreement with or in opposition to his own. This true catholicity of spirit was manifested in all his relations with our Shakespeare Club alike in the part he took in its foundation and in his conduct of the proceedings as its President. The oldest members will be the best qualified to affirm that there has never been the least impediment to, or restriction of, that absolute frankness and truthfulness of expression which is the quality which alone can give real value to human intercourse.
