Love is the source of all the bestowals of God. Until love
takes possession of the heart, no other divine bounty can be revealed in it.
(‘Abdu’l-Baha,
from a talk, New York, 14 April 1912; ‘The
Promulgation of Universal Peace: Talks Delivered by 'Abdu'l-Bahá during His
Visit to the United States and Canada in 1912’)
