The Pen of Admonition exhorteth the friends and enjoineth on
them charity, pity, wisdom, and gentleness. The Oppressed One is this day a
prisoner; His allies are the hosts of good deeds and virtues; not ranks, and
hosts, and guns, and cannons. One holy action maketh the world of earth highest
paradise.
- Baha’u’llah (Quoted by ‘Abdu’l-Baha in ‘A Traveler’s Narrative’)
