I've been learning how to give. It's something you have to keep working on, because people like money the way they do their homes and their dogs.
New York Times (1997)
The more good I do, the more money has come in. You have to learn to give. You're not born to give. You're born selfish.
He who gives money gives some, he who gives time gives more, and he who gives of himself gives all.
For the will and not the gift makes the giver
It matters more how one gives than what one gives
When you give yourself, you receive more than you give
You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give
It is more agreeable to have the power to give than to receive
The more we give to others, the more are we increased
Giving requires good sense
