O Comrades! The gates that open on the Placeless stand wide
and the habitation of the loved one is adorned with the lovers’ blood, yet all
but a few remain bereft of this celestial city, and even of these few, none but
the smallest handful hath been found with a pure heart and sanctified spirit.
- Baha’u’llah (‘The Hidden Words of Baha’u’llah’)
