One must ride in the Ship of God; for this life
is a stormy sea, and all the people on earth - that is, over two billion
souls - will drown in it before a hundred years have passed. All, except those
who ride in the Ship of God. Those will be saved.
- 'Abdu'l-Baha (Words of ‘Abdu’l-Baha aboard
the Celtic as he left America, recorded by Mirza Mahmud Zarqani; ‘Sampler from
Mahmud’s Diary’, by Marzieh Gail, ‘The Baha’i World vol. 13)
