“O ye rich ones on earth! The poor in your midst are My trust; guard ye My trust, and be not intent only on your own ease.”

Noble have I created thee, yet thou hast abased thyself. Rise then unto that for which thou wast created.

Regard man as a mine rich in gems of inestimable value. Education can, alone, cause it to reveal its treasures, and enable mankind to benefit there from.

The true seeker hunts naught but the object of his quest, and the lover has no desire save union with his Beloved.

Verily we are from God, and to Him shall we return!

The True Seeker must, before all else, cleanse his heart.

Peace be upon him who follows the Straight Path!

The earth is but one country and mankind its citizens.

Speak no evil, that thou mayest not hear it spoken unto thee, and magnify not the faults of others that thine own faults may not appear great.

Justice and equity are twin Guardians that watch over men. From them are revealed such blessed and perspicuous words as are the cause of the well-being of the world and the protection of the nations.

Know thou that every fixed star hath its own planets, and every planet its own creatures, whose number no man can compute.

Should the fragrance of Thy praise be shed abroad by any of the divers tongues of the world, out of the East or out of the West, it would, verily, be prized and greatly cherished.

Ascribe not to any soul that which thou wouldst not have ascribed to thee, and say not that which though doest not.

Regard ye the world as a man’s body, which is afflicted with diverse ailments, and the recovery of which dependeth upon the harmonizing of all its component elements.

The country is the world of the soul, the city is the world of bodies.

My Calamity is my providence, outwardly it is fire and vengeance, but inwardly it is light and mercy.

Let your vision be world embracing rather than confined to your own self.
