Become ye intoxicated with the wine of the love of God, and
not with that which deadeneth your minds, O ye that adore Him! Verily, it hath
been forbidden unto every believer, whether man or woman....
- Bahá'u'lláh (Quoted by Shoghi Effendi, ‘The Advent of Divine Justice’; The Compilation of
Compilations, vol. I, A Chase and Holy Life)
