Therefore, strive to show in the human world that women are most capable
and efficient, that their hearts are more tender and susceptible than the
hearts of men, that they are more philanthropic and responsive toward the needy
and suffering, that they are inflexibly opposed to war and are lovers of peace.
Strive that the ideal of international peace may become realized through the
efforts of womankind, for man is more inclined to war than woman, and a real
31
evidence of woman’s superiority will be her service and efficiency in the
establishment of universal peace.
(“The Promulgation of Universal Peace: Talks Delivered by ‘Abdu’l-Bahá during His Visit to the United States and Canada in 1912”, p. 284) [85] |
