We must realize our imperfection and not permit ourselves to
get too upset over the unfortunate things which occur, sometimes in
Conventions, sometimes in Assemblies or on Committees, etc. Such things are
essentially superficial and in time will be outgrown.
- Shoghi Effendi (From a letter dated 17
March 1943 written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer; The
Compilation of Compilations, vol. II, Living the Life)
