You should give serious concern to the matter of teaching, and think of ways of imparting the Message to prominent people, for once such person have given their allegiance to the Faith they will cause the people to be led, troop after troop, to the wellspring of unfailing guidance. (‘Abdu’l-Baha, from a Tablet to an individual believer; The Compilation of Compilations, vol. II, Teaching Prominent People)
