Ye are inviting me
to America. I am likewise longing to gaze upon those illumined faces and
converse and associate with those true friends. But the magnetic power which
shall draw me to those shores is the union and harmony of the friends, their
behaviour and conduct in accordance with the teachings of God and the firmness
of all in the Covenant and the Testament.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Selections from the
Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Baha’)
