The thing the friends need -- everywhere -- is a greater
love for each other, and this can be acquired by greater love for Bahá'u'lláh;
for if we love Him deeply enough, we will never allow personal feelings and
opinions to hold His Cause back; we will be willing to sacrifice ourselves to
each other for the sake of the Faith, and be, as the Master said, one soul in many
bodies.
- Shoghi Effendi (From a letter dated 5 September 1946 written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi
to an individual believer; The Compilation of Compilations vol. II)
