In
the estimation of the people of Bahá man’s glory lieth in his knowledge, his
upright conduct, his praiseworthy character, his wisdom, and not in his
nationality or rank. O people of the earth! Appreciate the value of this
heavenly word. Indeed it may be likened unto a ship for the ocean of knowledge
and a shining luminary for the realm of perception.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Tablets of
Baha’u’llah revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
