Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need.
Khalil Gibran
Image
My hope is that we develop enough courage to develop courage. To try to have, try to learn to treat each other fairly, with generosity and kindness.
Maya Angelou
Image
Generosity helps us make a concerted effort to keep the needs of others in the forefront of our thinking. Rich people should not feel guilty, but we should feel responsible. We are called to be good stewards of the resources we have been privileged to manage.

At this critical time, I am grateful to Sandra Bullock for once again demonstrating her leadership, compassion and belief in our global humanitarian mission. Sandra continues to enable our lifesaving work and is a model for personal generosity.

For most of us, generosity is a quality that must be developed. We have to respect that it will grow gradually otherwise our spirituality can become idealistic and imitative, acting out the image of generosity before it has become genuine.
Jack Kornfield

Go out into the world and do good until there is too much good in the world.
Larry H. Miller

As the biocentric view suggests, the garden prospers when control is balanced by equal measures of humility and benevolence. A balance is struck. Control, servitude, respect, imagination, pragmatism, an ecological conscience, compliance, and a certain measure of mysticism and altruism, all meld together to provide nurturance.

Is there any good reason why we cannot extend our multi-cultural generosity to include another dimension? That of time. The past, too, is another country. Its ghosts may look strange and frightening and slightly misshapen in body and mind, but all the more reason then, to welcome them to our shores.
Martin Amis
Image
When we set goals we are in command. If we know where we are going, we can judge more accurately where we are now and make effective plans to reach our destination.
Ezra Taft Benson
Image
Obviously, you would give your life for your children, or give them the last biscuit on the plate. But to me, the trick in life is to take that sense of generosity between kin, make it apply to the extended family and to your neighbour, your village and beyond.
Tom Stoppard
Image
It takes great generosity to accept generosity.
Merle Shain
Image
What is called generosity is usually only the vanity of giving we enjoy the vanity more than the thing given.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Image
Our life-style contains more Thanatos than Eros, for egotism, exploitation, deception, obsession and addiction have more place in us than eroticism, joy, generosity and spontaneity.
Germaine Greer
Image
When you give yourself, you receive more than you give.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Image
We are possessed by the things we possess. When I like an object, I always give it to someone. It isn't generosity-it's only because I want others to be enslaved by objects, not me.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Image
Judgment and weariness are foes to service and generosity.
Mary Anne Radmacher
Image
In art there is compassion, in compassion there is humanity, with humanity there is generosity and love,' Peters said.
Gregory Peck
Image
Maybe we don’t recognize satisfaction because it is disguised as radical generosity, a strange misnomer in a consumer culture.
Jen Hatmaker
Image
There is no satisfaction that can compare with looking back across the years and finding you've grown in self-control, judgment, generosity, and unselfishness.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
Mindful time spent with the person we love is the fullest expression of true love and real generosity.
Nhat Hanh
Image
Our only hope lies in the power of our love, generosity, tolerance and understanding and our commitment to making the world a better place for all.
Muhammad Ali
Image
If there's time for an emergency, why isn't there time for brilliance, generosity or learning?
Seth Godin
Image
Helping people and putting smiles on their faces is a great, great thing. God only knows why more people don't do it more often.
