O handmaid of the Lord! Speak thou no word of politics; thy
task concerneth the life of the soul, for this verily leadeth to ma’s joy in
the world of God. Except to speak well of them, make thou no mention of the
earth’s kings, and the worldly governments thereof. Rather, confine thine
utterance to spreading the blissful tidings of the Kingdom of God, and
demonstrating the influence of the Word of God, and the holiness of the Cause
of God.
-'Abdu'l-Baha
