#giving

If you want to take something, you must first give it. This is called the subtle perception of the way things are.

He who cannot give anything away cannot feel anything either.

Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need.

A generous person is one who gives to the right people, the right amounts, at the right times, and with pleasure.

Generosity begins where calculation ends.

Speak the truth; yield not to anger; give when asked.

The highest happiness comes from giving happiness to others.

The spring breeze gives life to all things without claiming ownership of a single leaf.

You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.

Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need.

You are good when you strive to give of yourself. Yet you are not evil when you seek gain for yourself.

For to the fruit giving is a need, as receiving is a need to the root.

The cloud that gives rain does not demand a receipt from the earth.

A bit of fragrance always clings to the hand that gives roses.

Friendship is the purest love. It is the highest form of love where nothing is asked for, no condition, where one simply enjoys giving.

Be rooted in yourself, and then give your branches to the world.

You can only give to others what you already have in abundance inside.
