He who cannot give anything away cannot feel anything either
While you look at what is given, look also at the giver
We should give as we would receive, cheerfully, quickly, and without hesitation; for there is no grace in a benefit that sticks to the fingers
Because the good old rule
Sufficeth them, the simple plan,
That they should take who have the power,
And they should keep who can.

Rob Roy's Grave
