O SON OF MAN!
If thou lovest Me, turn away from thyself; and if thou seekest My pleasure, regard not thine own; that thou mayest die in Me and I may eternally live in thee.
- Baha'u'llah, The Arabic Hidden Words, no. 7
O Remnant of God! I am wholly sacrificed to Thee; I am content with curses in Thy path; I crave nought but to be slain in Thy love; and God, the Supreme, sufficeth as an eternal protection.
- The Báb, quoted by Abdu’l-Bahá, The Promulgation of Universal Peace, p. 139
God's Love it was that sustained the Báb and brought him to his supreme sacrifice, and made his bosom the willing target for a thousand bullets.
- Abdu’l-Bahá, Paris Talks, p. 83
