119. It is incumbent upon &Baha'i children to surpass other children in the acquisition of sciences and arts, for they have been cradled in the grace of God.

Whatever other children learn in a year, let &Baha'i children learn in a month. The heart of &Abdu'l-Baha longeth, in its love, to find that &Baha'i young people, each and all, are known throughout the world for their intellectual attainments. There is no question but that they will exert all their efforts, their energies, their sense of pride, to acquire the sciences and arts.
