The hands of bounty have borne round the cup of everlasting life. Approach, and quaff your fill. Drink with healthy relish, O ye that are the very incarnations of longing, ye who are the embodiments of vehement desire!
- Baha'u'llah, Gleanings from the Writings of Baha'u'llah, p. 32
O maid-servant of God! verily, I long for that cup, which is overflowing with the bounty of God, as a patient desiring to be healed, as a thirsty soul seeking water, as the poor in quest of wealth, and as one in separation yearning after the meeting of the beloved one night and day.
- Abdu'l-Bahá, Tablets of Abdu'l-Bahá v2, p. 314
