Among those who visit Akká, some have made great forward
strides. Lightless candles, they were set alight; withered, they began to
bloom; dead, they were recalled to life and went home with tidings of great
joy. But others, in truth, have simply passed through; they have only taken a
tour.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Selections from the Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Baha’)
