Has the man no hand that you might grasp, no eyes into which yours might gaze far deeper than your vaunted intellect can follow? Is there not, I ask, anything in him to love? Who said you were to be of one opinion? It is the Lord who asks you to be of one heart. Does the Lord love the man? Can the Lord love where there is nothing to love? Are you wiser than he, inasmuch as you perceive impossibility where he has failed to discover it?
— George MacDonald, Your Life in Christ, p. 206
