That's what I consider true generosity: You give your all, and yet you always feel as if it costs you nothing.

Pure generosity is when you help the ingrate. Every other form is self-serving.

To pay homeage to our past is the only gesture that also includes the future.

TRUE GENEROSITY is greatness of soul. It incites us to do more by a fellow-creature than can be strictly required of us. It obliges us to hasten to the relief of an object that wants relief; anticipating even such a one’s hope or expectation.

Generosity lies less in giving much than in giving at the right moment.

The present is theirs; the future, for which I really worked, is mine.

The present is big with the future.

Generosity is the most natural outward expression of an inner attitude of compassion and loving-kindness.

Gain all you can, save all you can, give all you can.

The best way to take care of the future is to take care of the present moment.

The dedicated life is the life worth living. You must give with your whole heart.

Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need.

Live neither in the past nor in the future, but let each day's work absorb your entire energies, and satisfy your widest ambition.

The foundation of reverence is this perception, that the present holds within itself the complete sum of existence, backwards and forwards, that whole amplitude of time, which is eternity.
