It is the hope of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá that those youthful souls in
the schoolroom of the deeper knowledge will be tended by one who traineth them
to love. May they all, throughout the reaches of the spirit, learn well of the
hidden mysteries; so well that in the Kingdom of the All-Glorious, each one of
them, even as a nightingale endowed with speech, will cry out the secrets of
the Heavenly Realm, and like unto a longing lover pour forth his sore need and
utter want of the Beloved.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Selections from the Writings of
‘Abdu’l-Baha’)
