The wisdom of the world may speak of goodness; but when I go to the altar of my God, I see that God is more than goodness; that he is love; for what were the deepening scenes of my Lord's passion, but brightest scenes of love? What was his submission to be "led as a lamb to the slaughter?" What his agony and bloody sweat? Herein is love; and on love so demonstrated I build an infinite confidence. He that so loved me can never be indifferent to me, and can never forget me.

Richard Watson — Sermons and Sketches of Sermons, vol. I (New-York: T. Mason and G. Lane, 1838), Sermon XL, "The Altar of God" (Ps. 43:4), p. 401
