Our duty…

It is your duty to be exceedingly kind to every human being, and to wish him well; to work for the upliftment of society; to blow the breath of life into the dead; to act in accordance with the instructions of Bahá’u’lláh and walk His path—until ye change the world of man into the world of God. 
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha  (‘Selections from the Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Baha’)

Inner peace

O Son of Spirit! There is no peace for thee save by renouncing thyself and turning unto Me… 
- Baha’u’llah  ('The Hidden Words of Baha’u’llah’)

“bring joy and happiness to the hearts”

As much as ye can, bring joy and happiness to the hearts and seek felicity for all humankind. 
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha  (quoted by the Universal House of Justice in a message dated Naw-Ruz 2015 to the Baha’is of Iran)

Not to mention the sins of others

O Son of Man! Breathe not the sins of others so long as thou art thyself a sinner. 
- Baha’u’llah  (‘The Hidden Words of Baha’u’llah’)
