The Tree of Life is full of blossoms, leave and fruits! —the
shade thereof is a peace to soul and a rest to the consciousness. Whosoever is
under this Tree will certainly partake of fruit. But shade trees are many in
the forest, which, though fresh and verdant, are, nevertheless, fruitless.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Tablets of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, vol. 1)
