“You and I have formerly seen warm debates and high political passions. But gentlemen of different politics would then speak to each other and separate the business of the Senate from that of society. It is not so now.

Hence the new age will be an age less masculine, and more permeated with the feminine ideals—or, to speak more exactly, will be an age in which the masculine and feminine elements of civilization will be more evenly balanced.” MenWorldMindHas BeensReasonBodyAgePastSpiritualSpeakStrongForceQualityBalanceCivilizationElementsLosingIdealsWeightIntuitionFeminineAggressiveBalancedNew AgeMasculineShiftingMind And BodyAlertnessMasculine And FeminineAscendancy Author:Abdu'l-Bahá
