James Hinton was well aware of his own lack of stability, and dreaded above all things being set up as an intellectual Pope.

He often illustrated the relation between the two types by the following Parable. Little boys and girls, he said, play together indiscriminately, regardless of sex; and all copy the eldest or cleverest child.
