O ye that dwell on earth! The religion of God is for love and unity; make it not the cause of enmity or dissension.
Bahá'u'lláhO SON OF MAN! I loved thy creation, hence I created thee. Wherefore, do thou love Me, that I may name thy name and fill thy soul with the spirit of life.
Bahá'u'lláhNoble have I created thee, yet thou hast abased thyself. Rise then unto that for which thou wast created.
Bahá'u'lláhBe anxiously concerned with the needs of the age ye live in, and center your deliberations on its exigencies and requirements.
Bahá'u'lláhThat one indeed is a man who, today, dedicateth himself to the service of the entire human race. The Great Being saith: Blessed and happy is he that ariseth to promote the best interests of the peoples and kindreds of the earth. 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
