In their homes, ... in the daily contact of business
transactions, ... the community of the followers of Bahá'u'lláh should satisfy
themselves that in the eyes of the world at large and in the sight of their
vigilant Master they are the living witnesses of those truths which He fondly
cherished and tirelessly championed to the very end of His days....
- Shoghi Effendi (From a message dated 12 April 1927 addressed to the
National Spiritual Assembly of the United States and Canada, published in
"Bahá'í Administration: Selected Messages 1922-1932"; The
Compilation of Compilations, vol. I, Trustworthiness: A Cardinal Bahá'í Virtue)
