One speck of chastity is greater than a hundred years of worship and a sea of knowledge.
                                                   ~ Bahá'í Faith: Unpublished Letter , November 2003

Sexual intimacy within God's boundaries of a loving, committed marriage can provide tremendous joy and fun; it can celebrate intimacy and love; it can bring the blessing of children; and it can create and sustain the mysterious, holy, and sacred oneness of marriage.

Faithfulness is one of the marks of genius.
    ~ Charles Baudelaire, Quoted in 2002 Ways to Find, Attract, and Keep a Mate, p. 54
