By making sad ones happy, we find our happiness!

A kindness received should be returned with a freer hand.

No matter how little you have, you can always give some of it away.

If what must be given is given willingly the kindness is doubled.

The richest gifts we can bestow are the least marketable. We hate the kindness which we understand.

We are not here to enjoy the things on earth, but to pass them around. The people who do it are the happiest people you know!

When you give bread to a beggar we give him that taste of paradise which only the poor can savor.

The goodness you receive from God is a treasure for you to share with others.

It's not what you get, but what you give that is God's true measure of a life.

Hold material goods and wealth on a flat palm and not in a clenched fist.

Give, give, give - what is the point of having experience, knowledge or talent if I don't give it away? Of having stories if I don't tell them to others? Of having wealth if I don't share it? I don't intend to be cremated with any of it! It is in giving that I connect with others, with the world and with the divine.

My wealth doesn't come from offerings alone.
