Stop asking yourself what you want, what you desire, what interests you. Ask yourself instead: What has been given to me? Ask: What do I have to give back? Then give it.

Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; give the world the best you've got anyway.

The value of a man should be seen in what he gives and not in what he is able to receive.

If you want the best the world has to offer, offer the world your best.

Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.

You must remember always to give, of everything you have. You must give foolishly even. You must be extravagant. You must give to all who come into your life. Then nothing and no one shall have power to cheat you of anything, for if you give to a thief, he cannot steal from you, and he himself is then no longer a thief. And the more you give, the more you will have to give.

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. You receive from the world what you give to the world.

Be the designer of your world and not merely the consumer of it.

We can stop asking what others can do for us, and start asking what we can do for others.

But shouldn't all of us on earth give the best we have to others and offer whatever is in our power?

Help the world to become better. Don't leave the world just the same as you have found it - make it a little better, make it a little more beautiful.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

They made me see that the world was beautiful if you were beautiful, and that you couldn't get unless you gave. And you had to give without wanting to get.

The world is before you, and you need not take it or leave it as it was when you came in.
