”For the attributes of the people of faith are justice and fair-mindedness; forbearance and compassion and generosity; consideration of others’ candor, trustworthiness, and loyalty; love and loving-kindness; devotion and determination and humanity. If therefore an individual is truly righteous, he will avail himself of all those means which will attract the hearts of men, and through the attributes of God he will draw them to the straight path of faith and cause them to drink from the river of everlasting life.” —‘Abdu’l-Baha, Secret of Divine Civilization
