The person who gives with a smile is the best giver because God loves a cheerful giver.

Almost every day brings opportunities to perform unselfish acts for others. Such acts are unlimited and can be as simple as a kind word, a helping hand, or a gracious smile.

The soul is frail, but God is full of compassion for the distress of the soul, for the failure of the heart. It is said in the Talmud: "There are some who desire [to help others] but have not the means; whilst others have the means [and help] but have not the desire [to help]." Yet both kinds of people are holy in the eyes of God.

The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to help you, not expecting to receive from me any repayment of your favor; now you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to confer benefits on a Lion.

The covetous are poor givers.

If you do a good job for others, you heal yourself at the same time, because a dose of joy is a spiritual cure.

In normal life one is often not at all aware that we always receive infinitely more than we give, and that gratitude is what enriches life. One easily overestimates the importance of one's own acts and deeds, compared with what we become only through other people.

The value of a life is always measured by how much of it is given away.

When you serve others, when you make somebody else's life better, when you lift up people, when you help heal those that are hurting, not only are they being blessed, but you're being blessed.

Life is really very simple. What we give out, we get back.

A random act of kindness, no matter how small, can make a tremendous impact on someone else's life.
