Best Quotes about Giving

1.
He who gives while he lives, get to know where it goes.
Ross, Percy

2.
Any person who contributes to prosperity must prosper in turn.
Nightingale, Earl

3.
Give, and it shall be given to you. For whatever measure you deal out to others, it will be dealt to you in return.
Bible

4.
Give and it shall be given unto you: good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over... [Luke 6:38]
Bible

5.
When you're nice to people, they want to be nice back to you.
Canfield, Jack

6.
It is more blessed to give than to receive. [Acts 20:35]
Bible

7.
Seek joy in what you give not in what you get

8.
The great art of giving consists in this: the gift should cost very little and yet be greatly coveted, so that it may be the more highly appreciated.
Baltasar Gracian

9.
The more we give of anything, the more we shall get back.
Speare, Grace

10.
Giving is better than receiving because giving starts the receiving process.
Rohn, Jim

11.
You try to give away what you want yourself.
Lois McMaster Bujold

12.
You make a living by what you get, but you make a life by what you give.

13.
Giving presents is a talent; to know what a person wants, to know when and how to get it, to give it lovingly and well. Unless a character possesses this talent there is no moment more annihilating to ease than that in which a present is received and given.
Glenconner, Pamela

14.
All that this world knows of living lies in giving -- and more giving; He that keeps, be sure he loses -Friendship grows by what it uses.
Maclaren, Alexander

15.
The more sympathy you give, the less you need.
Forbes, Malcolm S.

16.
Let me be a little kinder, Let me be a little blinder To the faults about me; Let me praise a little more, Let me be, when I am weary; Just a little bit more cheery, Let me serve a little better Those that I am striving for. Let me be a little braver When temptation bids me waver, Let me strive a little harder To be all that I should be; Let me be a little meeker to the brother that is weaker; Let me think more of my neighbor and a little less of me.

17.
Let each one do just as he has purposed in his heart; not grudgingly or under compulsion; for God loves a cheerful giver. [2 Corinthians 9:7]
Bible

18.
Always think in terms of what the other person wants.
Fleet, James Van

19.
What a child doesn't receive he can seldom later give.
P. D. James

20.
Complete possession is proved only by giving. All you are unable to give possesses you.
Gide, Andre

21.
There is only one way to succeed in anything and that is to give everything. I do and I demand that my players do. Any man's finest hour is when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle... victorious.
Lombardi, Vince

22.
You cannot hold on to anything good. You must be continually giving -- and getting. You cannot hold on to your seed. You must sow it -- and reap anew. You cannot hold on to riches. You must use them and get other riches in return.
Collier, Robert

23.
It is rare indeed that people give. Most people guard and keep; they suppose that it is they themselves and what they identify with themselves that they are guarding and keeping, whereas what they are actually guarding and keeping is their system of reality and what they assume themselves to be.
Baldwin, James

24.
Gifts allow us to demonstrate exactly how little we know about a person. And nothing pisses a person off more than being shoved into the wrong pigeonhole.
Pam Davis

25.
Blessed are those who give without remembering. And blessed are those who take without forgetting.
Meltzer, Bernard

26.
We must give more in order to get more, It is the generous giving of ourselves that produce the generous harvest.
Marden, Orison Swett

27.
Why is it no one ever sent me yet one perfect limousine, do you suppose? Ah no, it's always just my luck to get one perfect rose.
Parker, Dorothy

28.
There is no benefit in the gifts of a bad man.
Euripides

29.
If you would take, you must first give, this is the beginning of intelligence.
Lao-Tzu

30.
I do not believe one can settle how much we ought to give. I am afraid the only safe rule is to give more than we can spare.
Lewis, C. S.

31.
The man who will use his skill and constructive imagination to see how much he can give for a dollar, instead of how little he can give for a dollar, is bound to succeed.
Ford, Henry

32.
Giving half answers won't make the conversation half as long.
Johnson, Dave

33.
The gifts that one receives for giving are so immeasurable that it is almost an injustice to accept them.
Mckeun, Rod

34.
The most satisfying thing in life is to have been able to give a large part of oneself to others.
Chardin, Pierre Teilhard De

35.
We read on the foreheads of those who are surrounded by a foolish luxury, that fortune sells what she is thought to give.
La Fontaine, Jean De

36.
The spirit in which a thing is given determines that in which the debt is acknowledged; it's the intention, not the face-value of the gift, that's weighed.
Seneca
