It amazes me to, from how many countries the members are - even the members that are logged in at any one time.
In case you are interested, the person who wrote this quote, Mirza Hussayn Ali (better known as Bahá'u'lláh, "The Glory of God"), is the founder of the Bahá'í Faith. In this religion, universal peace and unity (and unity at other levels, starting from the family level) has a great priority.
