…the sublime achievements of man reside in those qualities
and attributes that exclusively pertain to the angels of the Supreme Concourse.
Therefore, when praiseworthy qualities and high morals emanate from man, he
becometh a heavenly being, an angel of the Kingdom, a divine reality and a
celestial effulgence. On the other hand, when he engageth in warfare,
quarrelling and bloodshed, he becometh viler than the most fierce of savage
creatures…- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Selections from the Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Baha’)
