Life is not easy for the young people of this generation.
They enter life with a heart full of hope, but find before themselves nothing
but failures, and see in the future nothing but darkness. What they need is the
light manifested by Bahá'u'lláh, for that brightens their soul and stimulates
their vigour in facing difficulties. (From a letter dated 12 March 1933 written
on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer; The Compilation of
Compilations, vol. II, Youth)
