Summary

This quote highlights the financial disparities that exist in society. It categorizes people into three groups: the wealthy who possess material wealth and resources (the haves), the underprivileged who lack access to these resources (the have-nots), and those who possess material wealth but have acquired it through means other than their own efforts or without paying for it (the have-not-paid-for-what-they-haves). This suggests that some individuals may attain wealth through privileged or unjust means, further emphasizing the unequal distribution of resources.

My name is `Abdu'l-BahÃ¡ [literally, Servant of Baha]. My qualification is `Abdu'l-BahÃ¡. My reality is `Abdu'l-BahÃ¡. My praise is `Abdu'l-BahÃ¡. Thraldom to the Blessed Perfection [BahÃ¡'u'llÃ¡h] is my glorious and refulgent diadem, and servitude to all the human race my perpetual religion... No name, no title, no mention, no commendation have I, nor will ever have, except `Abdu'l-BahÃ¡. This is my longing. This is my greatest yearning. This is my eternal life. This is my everlasting glory.

I think that perhaps we always fall in love the very first time we see the man of our dreams, even though, at the time, reason may be telling otherwise, and we may fight against that instinct, hoping against hope that we won't win, until there comes a point when we allow ourselves to be vanquished by our feelings...
