Bahá’í Quotes

Movement

If it be Thy pleasure, make me to grow as a tender herb in the meadows of Thy grace, that the gentle winds of Thy will may stir me up and bend me into conformity with Thy pleasure, in such wise that my movement and my stillness may be wholly directed by Thee.

- Bahá’u’lláh, Prayers and Meditations by Bahá’u’lláh, p. 240

Quote of the Day

Idal 7 Masail 182 B.E.

Nor is contentment to be found in the somewhat more intangible material attainments such as social recognition or political power. Ultimately, not even intellectual achievement satisfies our deepest needs.
