Giving Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Giving

1.
He who obtains has little. He who scatters has much.
Lao-Tzu

2.
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

3.
The excellence of a gift lies in its appropriateness rather than in its value.
Charles Dudley Warner

4.

Glenconner, Pamela

5.
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

6.
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

7.
Look around for a place to sow a few seeds.
Dyke, Henry Van

8.
We must give more in order to get more, It is the generous giving of ourselves that produce the generous harvest.
Marden, Orison Swett

9.
Giving is true having.
Spurgeon, Charles Haddon

10.
The human contribution is the essential ingredient. It is only in the giving of oneself to others that we truly live.
Andrus, Ethel Percy

11.
Any person who contributes to prosperity must prosper in turn.
Nightingale, Earl

12.
It is like the seed put in the soil -- the more one sows, the greater the harvest.
Marden, Orison Swett

13.
It is better to give than to lend, and it costs about the same.
Gibbs, Philip

14.
EARN as much as you can. SAVE as much as you can. INVEST as much as you can. GIVE as much as you can.
Wellesly, Rev. John

15.
The gifts that one receives for giving are so immeasurable that it is almost an injustice to accept them.
Mckeun, Rod

16.
Gifts must affect the receiver to the point of shock.
Benjamin, Walter

17.
When you give yourself, you receive more than you give.
Saint-Exupery, Antoine De

18.
You try to give away what you want yourself.
Lois McMaster Bujold

19.
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

20.
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.

21.
The big print giveth, and the fine print taketh away.
Sheen, Fulton John

22.
You make a living by what you get, but you make a life by what you give.

23.
He who gives while he lives, get to know where it goes.
Ross, Percy

24.
Seek joy in what you give not in what you get

25.
The manner of giving is worth more than the gift.
Corneille, Pierre

26.
Give little love to a child, and you get a great deal back.
Ruskin, John

27.
It is not what we get. But who we become, what we contribute... that gives meaning to our lives.
Robbins, Anthony

28.
To give without any reward, or any notice, has a special quality of its own.
Lindbergh, Anne Morrow

29.
There is no benefit in the gifts of a bad man.
Euripides

30.
It's not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.
Mother Teresa

31.
I do detest everything which is not perfectly mutual.
Byron, Lord

32.
Fragrance clings to the hand that gives the rose.

33.
Giving is better than receiving because giving starts the receiving process.
Rohn, Jim

34.
He who bestows his goods upon the poor shall have as much again, and ten times more.
Bunyan, John

35.
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.
Seneca

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