Were any man to taste the sweetness of the words which the
lips of the All-Merciful have willed to utter, he would, though the treasures
of the earth be in his possession, renounce them one and all, that he might
vindicate the truth of even one of His commandments, shining above the
Dayspring of His bountiful care and loving-kindness.
- Baha’u’llah (‘A Synopsis
and Codification of the Kitáb-i-Aqdas, the Most Holy Book of Bahá'u'lláh’; The
Compilation of Compilations, vol. I, The Importance of Deepening our Knowledge
of the Faith)
