It behoveth… the loved ones of God to be forbearing towards
their fellow-men, and to be so sanctified and detached from all things, and to
evince such sincerity and fairness, that all the peoples of the earth may recognize
them as the trustees of God amongst men. Consider to what lofty heights the
injunctions of the Almighty have soared… Blessed are they who, on the wings of
certitude, have flown in the heavens which the Pen of thy Lord, the
All-Merciful, hath spread.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the Writings of
Baha’u’llah’)
