When you saw me with a dagger in hand - as if to throw at you - you didn't call for your guards. You didn't fear I was here to kill you. You looked over your shoulder to see what I was aiming at. That's the most loving gesture I think a man could receive from a woman. Unless you'd like to sit on my knee for a while.
Robert Jordan
Image
It is necessary to give freely if we are to receive freely. The law of receiving includes giving. The knowledge that substance is omnipresent and that people cannot, therefore, impoverish themselves by giving (but rather will increase their supply) will enable us to give freely and cheerfully.
Charles Fillmore
Image
Education is the preparation of the individual for reciprocal union with society the preparation of the individual so that he can help his fellow-men and in return receive and appreciate their help.
William Torrey Harris
Image
The minimum wage law very cleverly is misnamed. The real minimum wage is zero. That is what many inexperienced and low skilled people receive as a result of legislation that makes it illegal to pay them what they are currently worth to an employer.
Thomas Sowell
Image
The best time to frame an answer to the letters of a friend, is the moment you receive them. Then the warmth of friendship, and the intelligence received, most forcibly cooperate.
William Shenstone
Image
I gave up my music because I had received from it all I had to receive. To serve God one must sacrifice the dearest thing, and I sacrificed my music, the dearest thing to me.
Hazrat Inayat Khan

When you're young, you want to make every kind of film: musicals, Westerns, horror. Slowly you begin to hear your own voice. I hope people receive what I do as small, personal films that are somewhat contrarian about their main characters.
Jason Reitman
Image
Today I will practice healthy giving, understanding that caretaking and compulsive giving don't work. I choose what I want to give, to whom, when, and how much. It takes time to learn how to give in healthy ways. It takes time to learn to receive. Balance will come.
Melody Beattie
Image
We must act on the direction we receive. We must look up and step up. And as we do, I know we will cheer up, for God wants us to be happy.
Carl B. Cook
Image
We need to give each other the space to grow, to be ourselves, to exercise our diversity. We need to give each other space so that we may both give and receive such beautiful things as ideas, openness, dignity, joy, healing, and inclusion.
Max De Pree
Image
The most wonderful thing, Mary, is that you and I are always walking together, hand in hand, in a strangely beautiful world, unknown to other people. We both stretch one hand to receive from Life - and Life is generous indeed.
Khalil Gibran
Image
When we receive with an entire and perfect resignation the afflictions which God sends us they become for us favors and benefits because conformity to the will of God is a gain far superior to all temporal advantages.
Vincent de Paul
Image
Blessings don’t come from outside, but from within. Whatever blessings we receive are the result of our own efforts and positive actions.
Dalai Lama
Image
When praying for the Lord's will about something questionable, don't give up if you don't receive clear leading after one prayer just keep on praying until God makes it clear.
Curtis Hutson
Image
Do not undertake a scientific career in quest of fame or money. There are easier and better ways to reach them. Undertake it only if nothing else will satisfy you for nothing else is probably what you will receive. Your reward will be the widening of the horizon as you climb. And if you achieve that reward you will ask no other.
Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin
Image
We are already seeing older people wanting greater choice in how, when and where they receive care.
Julie Bishop
Image
We receive from God, then we give to others.
Rick Warren
Image
In the course of the world, a man must very often put on an easy, frank countenance, upon very disagreeable occasions he must seem pleased, when he is very much otherwise he must be able to accost and receive with smiles, those whom he would much rather meet with swords.
Lord Chesterfield
Image
There are some people who can receive a truth by no other way than to have their understanding shocked and insulted.
Carl Sandburg
Image
The law enforcement authorities have got a fairly good idea of who are these principal criminals. Who are the people, for instance, who receive the cell phones? When a young person goes and snatches a cell phone, there's someone who is sitting somewhere who receives this. Lots of this kind of crime.
Thabo Mbeki
Image
Let's return to our first love, in order to receive the fire which Jesus has kindled in the world and to bring that fire to all people, to the very ends of the earth.
Pope Francis
Image
When I consider the state of things in our fief, I find that those who hold positions and receive official stipends are incapable of the utmost in loyalty and patriotic service. Loyalty of the usual sort-perhaps, but if it is true loyalty and service you seek, then you must abandon this fief and plan a grass-roots uprising.
Yoshida Shoin

Who pleasure gives, Shall joy receive
Benjamin Franklin
Image
The idea of regularly acknowledging our indebtedness to the natural world and giving thanks for the many gifts we receive from it, or considering other species to be our close relations which many indigenous peoples still do, couldn't be more alien to most of us.
