شکر کن خدا را زیرا اول کسی که خود را پسندید شیطان بود انسان نباید خود را بر تر از دیگران داند

Thank God, because the first self-conceited one was Satan. A man must never consider himself greater than others.... Act in accordance with the teachings of Baha'u'llah. Do not only read His teachings but put into practice in your lives the Hidden Words... It [mind-to-mind communication] is evident. If a lover holds the hand of a beloved, it is obvious what feelings ensue... I have not come for rest and diversion.
