Should any one of you rule over the whole earth, and over
all that lieth within it and upon it, its seas, its lands, its mountains, and
its plains, and yet be not remembered by God, all these would profit him not,
could ye but know it....
- Baha’u’llah (Quoted by Shoghi Effendi in ‘The
Promised Day Is Come’; Suriy-i-Muluk [Tablet to the Kings]; ‘Summons of the
Lord of Hosts’)
