October 6

When a true seeker determineth to take the step of search in the path leading unto the knowledge of the Ancient of Days… He should succor the dispossessed, and never withhold his favor from the destitute. He should show kindness to animals, how much more unto his fellow-man, to him who is endowed with the power of utterance. 
- Baha’u’llah  (‘Gleanings from the Writings of Baha’u’llah’)
