Motivational Quotes

Giving

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
Giving Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Giving

1.
You must give some time to your fellow men. Even if it's a little thing, do something for others - something for which you get no pay but the privilege of doing it.
Albert Schweitzer

2.
If we have the opportunity to be generous with our hearts, ourselves, we have no idea of the depth and breadth of love's reach.
Margaret Cho

3.
Go-Givers will become the best go-getters.

4.
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

5.
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

6.
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

7.
One man gives freely, yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want. [Proverbs 11-24]
Bible

8.
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

9.
He who obtains has little. He who scatters has much.
Lao-Tzu

10.
To give without any reward, or any notice, has a special quality of its own.
Lindbergh, Anne Morrow

11.
When people grow gradually rich their requirements and standard of living expand in proportion, while their present-giving instincts often remain in the undeveloped condition of their earlier days. Something showy and not-too-expensive in a shop is their only conception of the ideal gift.
Munro, Hector Hugh

12.
There is no benefit in the gifts of a bad man.
Euripides

13.
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

14.
Fragrance clings to the hand that gives the rose.

15.
Complete possession is proved only by giving. All you are unable to give possesses you.
Gide, Andre

16.
In helping others, we shall help ourselves, for whatever good we give out completes the circle and comes back to us.
Edwards, Flora

17.
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

18.
I do detest everything which is not perfectly mutual.
Byron, Lord

19.
Seek joy in what you give not in what you get

20.
There would be no advantage to be gained by sowing a field of wheat if the harvest did not return more than was sown.
Hill, Napoleon

21.
I have somewhere met with the epitaph on a charitable man which has pleased me very much. I cannot recollect the words, but here is the sense of it: What I spent I lost; what I possessed is left to others; what I gave away remains with me.
Addison, Joseph

22.
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

23.
The big print giveth, and the fine print taketh away.
Sheen, Fulton John

24.
You can no more give what you haven't learned than you can come back from a place you've never been.

25.
You make a living by what you get, but you make a life by what you give.

26.
He doubly benefits the needy who gives quickly.
Publilius Syrus

27.
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

28.
If I choose to bless another person, I will always end up feeling more blessed.
Williamson, Marianne

29.
Sharing is sometimes more demanding than giving.
Bateson, Mary

30.
You try to give away what you want yourself.
Lois McMaster Bujold

31.
You give before you get.
Hill, Napoleon

32.
What we are doing is satisfying the American public. That's our job. I always say we have to give most of the people what they want most of the time. That's what they expect from us.
Paley, William

33.
Giving is true having.
Spurgeon, Charles Haddon

34.
If you would take, you must first give, this is the beginning of intelligence.
Lao-Tzu

35.
Before he left, Aunt William pressed a sovereign into his hand guiltily, as if it were conscience money. He, on his side, took it as though it were a doctor's fee, and both ignored the transaction.
Leverson, Ada

36.
There is only one real deprivation... and that is not to be able to give one's gifts to those one loves most.
Sarton, May

37.
Sow much, reap much; sow little, reap little.
Proverb, Chinese

38.
Make all you can, save all you can, give all you can.
John Wesley

39.
The more we give of anything, the more we shall get back.

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

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

49.
Nothing that you have not given away will ever be really yours.
Lewis, C. S.
