"The servants of God and His handmaidens are regarded on the same plane."

"In this Day the Hand of divine grace hath removed all distinctions. The servants of God and His handmaidens are regarded on the same plane. Blessed is the servant who hath attained unto that which God hath decreed, and likewise the leaf moving in accordance with the breezes of His will. This favour is great and this station lofty. His bounties and bestowals are ever present and manifest. Who is able to offer befitting gratitude for His successive bestowals and continuous favours?"

-Bahá’u’lláh, A Compilation on Women, THE BAHÁ’Í CONCEPT OF EQUALITY, pp. 3-4
