Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 7, Verse 18
Noble indeed are they all, but the wise man I regard as My very Self; for with the mind steadfast, he is established in Me alone, as the supreme goal.
Real devotion is affirmed as genuinely noble across the board, even while one form of it gets named as closer still.
This is careful not to diminish anyone. Every sincere devotee is called noble, full stop, and then, separately, an even deeper closeness is described for those whose focus has become fully undivided.
