So blind hath become the human heart that neither the
disruption of the city, nor the reduction of the mountain in dust, nor even the
cleaving of the earth, can shake off its torpor. The allusions made in the
Scriptures have been unfolded, and the signs recorded therein have been
revealed, and the prophetic cry is continually being raised. And yet all,
except such as God was pleased to guide, are bewildered in the drunkenness of
their heedlessness.(Baha’u’llah, ‘Gleanings from the Writings of Baha’u’llah’)
