Sir, he throws away his money without thought and without merit. I do not call a tree generous that sheds its fruit at every breeze.

The happiest people are those who have harvested their time in others. The unhappiest people are those who wonder how the world is going to make them happy.

The only thing missing in any situation is that in which you are not giving

As long as we remain vigilant at building our internal abundance—an abundance of integrity, an abundance of forgiveness, an abundance of service, an abundance of love—then external lack is bound to be temporary.

To whatever extent your mind is aligned with love, you will receive divine compensation for any lack in your material existence. From spiritual substance will come material manifestation. This is not just a theory; it is a fact. It is a law by which the universe operates. I call it the Law of Divine Compensation.

But remember, there's only one of us here: What we give to others, we give to ourselves.

Withholding love is a form of self-sabotage, as what we withhold from others, we are withholding from ourselves.

What we give to others, we give to ourselves. What we withhold from others, we withhold from ourselves. In any moment when we choose fear instead of love, we deny ourselves the experience of Paradise.

only what you have not given can be lacking in any situation.

What we mentally refuse to permit others, we refuse ourselves. What we bless in others, we draw to us.

Whatever I give to others, I am giving to myself.
