Bahá'u'lláh quotes

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. (Bahá'u'lláh)
Every age hath its own problem, and every soul its particular aspiration.
Bahá'u'lláh
It is incumbent upon everyone to aid those daysprings of authority and sources of command who are adorned with the ornamant of equity and justice.
Bahá'u'lláh
Say, O brethren! Let deeds, not words, be your adorning.
Bahá'u'lláh
God's purpose in sending His Prophets unto men is twofold. The first is to liberate the children of men from the darkness of ignorance, and guide them to the light of true understanding. The second is to ensure the peace and tranquillity of mankind, and provide all the means by which they can be established.
Bahá'u'lláh
Hear no evil, and see no evil, abase not thyself, neither sigh and weep. 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; and wish not the abasement of anyone, that thine own abasement be not exposed.
Bahá'u'lláh
How puny and insignificant is the evanescent drop when compared with the waves and billows of God's limitless and everlasting Ocean, and how utterly contemptible must every contingent and perishable thing appear when brought face to face with the uncreated, the unspeakable glory of the Eternal!
Bahá'u'lláh
Every created thing in the whole universe is but a door leading into His knowledge, a sign of His sovereignty, a revelation of His names, a symbol of His majesty, a token of His power, a means of admittance into His straight Path...
Bahá'u'lláh
If carried to excess, civilization will prove as prolific a source of evil as it had been of goodness when kept within the restraints of moderation.
Bahá'u'lláh
...for each day there is a new problem and for every problem an expedient solution.
Bahá'u'lláh
Rejoice not in the things ye possess; tonight they are yours, tomorrow others will possess them. (Bahá'u'lláh)
Wherefore, if those who have come to the sea of His presence are found to possess none of the limited things of this perishable world, whether it be outer wealth or personal opinions, it mattereth not. For whatever the creatures have is limited by their own limits, and whatever the True One hath is sanctified therefrom; this utterance must be deeply pondered that its purport may be clear.
Bahá'u'lláh
Man is the supreme Talisman. Lack of a proper education hath, however, deprived him of that which he doth inherently possess.
Bahá'u'lláh
Whatsoever instilleth assurance into the hearts of men, whatsoever exalteth their station or promoteth their contentment, is acceptable in the sight of God.
Bahá'u'lláh
The Great Being saith: Regard man as a mine rich in gems of inestimable value.
Bahá'u'lláh
Thus the whole earth will come to be regarded as one country.
Bahá'u'lláh
This is the plane whereon the vestiges of all things.
Bahá'u'lláh
This station is the dying from self and the living in God.
Bahá'u'lláh
The time must come when the imperative necessity for the holding of a vast, an all-embracing assemblage of men will be universally realized.
Bahá'u'lláh
It is not for him to pride himself who loveth his own country, but rather for him who loveth the whole world. The earth is but one country and mankind its citizens.
Bahá'u'lláh
O Brother! Not every sea hath pearls; not every branch will flower, nor will the nightingale sing thereon. Then, ere the nightingale of the mystic paradise repair to the garden of God, and the rays of the heavenly morning return to the Sun of Truth-make thou an effort, that haply in this dustheap of the mortal world thou mayest catch a fragrance from the everlasting garden, and live forever in the shadow of the peoples of this city. And when thou hast attained this highest station and come to this mightiest plane, then shalt thou gaze on the Beloved, and forget all else. (Bahá'u'lláh)
They who soar in the heaven of singleness and reach to the sea of the Absolute, reckon this city-which is the station of life in God-as the furthermost state of mystic knowers, and the farthest homeland of the lovers. But to this evanescent One of the mystic ocean, this station is the first gate of the heart's citadel, that is, man's first entrance to the city of the heart; and the heart is endowed with four stages, which would be recounted should a kindred soul be found.
Bahá'u'lláh
These journeys have no visible ending in the world of time, but the severed wayfarer-if invisible confirmation descend upon him and the Guardian of the Cause assist him-may cross these seven stages in seven steps, nay rather in seven breaths, nay rather in a single breath, if God will and desire it. And this is of "His grace on such of His servants as He pleaseth.”.
Bahá'u'lláh
In this Valley, the wayfarer leaveth behind him the stages of the "oneness of Being and Manifestation” and reacheth a oneness that is sanctified above these two stations. Ecstasy alone can encompass this theme, not utterance nor argument; and whosoever hath dwelt at this stage of the journey, or caught a breath from this garden land, knoweth whereof We speak.
Bahá'u'lláh
If the learned and worldly-wise men of this age were to allow mankind to inhale the fragrance of fellowship and love, every understanding heart would apprehend the meaning of true liberty, and discover the secret of undisturbed peace and absolute composure.
Bahá'u'lláh
