Truthfulness

Truthfulness is the foundation of all human virtues. Without truthfulness progress and success, in all the worlds of God, are impossible for any soul. When this holy attribute is established in man, all the divine qualities will also be acquired. 
(‘Abdu’l-Baha, quoted by Shoghi Effendi in ‘The Advent of Divine Justice’)

Equality of man and woman

The world of humanity has two wings - - one is woman and the other man. Not until both wings are equally developed can the bird fly. 
(‘Abdu'l-Baha, from a talk, 'Foundations of World Unity')

Fundamental purpose of religion

O ye children of men! The fundamental purpose animating the Faith of God and His Religion is to safeguard the interests and promote the unity of the human race, and to foster the spirit of love and fellowship amongst men. 
(Baha’u’llah, ‘The Tabernacle of Unity, Bahá’u’lláh’s Responses to Mánikchí Sáhib and Other Writings’)

Humanity’s true peace & tranquility

True peace and tranquillity will only be realized when every soul will have become the well-wisher of all mankind. 
(Baha’u’llah, ‘The Tabernacle of Unity, Bahá’u’lláh’s Responses to Mánikchí Sáib and Other Writings’)
