Giving is just one way of expressing that God has been good to you and will continue to do so through your being good to others.

Giving is an expression of gratitude for our blessings.

True generosity is an offering; given freely and out of pure love. No strings attached. No expectations. Time and love are the most valuable possession you can share.

Generosity is nothing else than a craze to possess. All which I abandon, all which I give, I enjoy in a higher manner through the fact that I give it away. To give is to enjoy possessively the object which one gives.

People do not always understand the motives of sublime conduct, and when they are astonished they are very apt to think they ought to be alarmed. The truth is none are fit judges of greatness but those who are capable of it.

The gifts that one receives for giving are so immeasurable that it is almost an injustice to accept them.

What is called generosity is usually only the vanity of giving; we enjoy the vanity more than the thing given.

I have no doubt concerning that Supreme Goodness, who is so eager to share His blessings, or of that everlasting love which makes Him more eager to bestow perfection on us than we are to receive it.

For if there is anything to one's praise, it is foolish vanity to be gratified at it, and if it is abuse - why one is always sure to hear of it from one damned good-natured friend or another!

It's about sharing. You just give what you have to give wherever you go, and you let God handle the rest.
