The first and foremost duty prescribed unto men, next to the
recognition of Him Who is the Eternal Truth, is the duty of steadfastness in
His Cause. Cleave thou unto it, and be of them whose minds are firmly fixed and
grounded in God. No act, however meritorious, did or can ever compare unto it.
It is the king of all acts, and to this thy Lord, the All-Highest, the Most
Powerful, will testify.... - Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the Writings of
Baha’u’llah’)
