“The accumulation of immense wealth can hardly be the object of a Christian ambition. Let us hasten, by prayer, by teaching, by example, the time when wealth shall not be treasured or laid up.”

Very Rev. H.D.M. Spence (c.1886), Dean of Gloucester, in Lesson on Isaiah 23 in The Pulpit Commentary on Isaiah (New York: Funk & Wagnalls).
