Too many people focus on the thing, instead of the heavenly glory of it. I don't want to give away what to expect.
Giving yourself is the ultimate revolution.
When you're paid to do a job, it's better to give a few minutes more to it, than a few minutes less. That's one of the differences between doing a job honestly and doing it dishonestly! See?
It is very unfair in any writer to employ ignorance and malice together, because it gives his answerer double work.
There is no sweeter pleasure than to surprise a man by giving him more than he hopes for.
How different our standard is from Christ's. We ask how much a man gives. Christ asks how much he keeps.
The opinion I have of the generality of women--who appear to me as children to whom I would rather give a sugar plum than my time, forms a barrier against matrimony which I rejoice in.
I can't give a Professor love!
The best way to end poverty is to simply give people work, which isn't considered 'sexy' among donors who want to fund a preschool or cure a disease.
Giving people what they want isn't always what they want.

I say I give institutions and structures and traditions all the respect that I think they deserve. That's usually mighty little, but there are things that I do respect. They have to earn that respect. They have to earn it by serving people. They don't earn it just by age or legality or tradition.
Asking ourselves, 'Where am I right now?' gives us a chance to step outside the internal dialogue for a moment of peace. Look around you, take a deep breath and notice what you see, hear and feel. Present moment awareness is the point of power and choice. It frees us from our compulsive thoughts.
The rich man is not one who is in possession of much, but one who gives much.
I like the feeling that I'm giving young women self-confidence. It sounds so cliched, but it can be very moving.
