O friends! Be not careless of the virtues with which ye have
been endowed, neither be neglectful of your high destiny.... Ye are the stars
of the heaven of understanding, the breeze that stirreth at the break of day,
the soft-flowing waters upon which must depend the very life of all men, the
letters inscribed upon His sacred scroll.
- Baha’u’llah (Quoted by Shoghi
Effendi in ‘The Advent of Divine Justice’)
