Every age hath its own problem, and every soul its particular aspiration.

In all matters moderation is desirable. If a thing is carried to excess, it will prove a source of evil.

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

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

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.

Since We have created you all from one same substance it is incumbent on you to be even as one soul, to walk with the same feet, eat with the same mouth and dwell in the same land, that from your inmost being, by your deeds and actions, the signs of oneness and the essence of detachment may be made manifest. Such is My counsel to you, O concourse of light!

A thankful person is thankful under all circumstances. A complaining soul complains even in paradise.
