I like gifts. I like to give them and I like to get them.

Eating is so intimate. It’s very sensual. When you invite someone to sit at your table and you want to cook for them, you’re inviting a person into your life.

The more credit you give away, the more will come back to you. The more you help others, the more they will want to help you.

Social media is called social media for a reason. It lends itself to sharing rather than horn-tooting.

The love we give away is the only love we keep.

There are slavish souls who carry their appreciation for favors done them so far that they strangle themselves with the rope of gratitude.

By giving people the power to share, we’re making the world more transparent.

O wise man! Give your wealth only to the worthy and never to others. The water of the sea received by the clouds is always sweet.

Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.

There is nothing which we receive with so much reluctance as advice.

I am amazed at the wonders of technology and am grateful for the ways in which we are able to use it to share the Gospel around the world.

There are some things you can’t share without ending up liking each other.

Remember that the happiest people are not those getting more, but those giving more.

The Tao teaches us to let go of things. Use the 80/20 rule. If you take all your clothes, you’ll find out that you only wear 20 percent of them. Take what you have and don’t use and circulate it. Give stuff to people who truly need it. After all, we come into this world with nothing; we leave this world with nothing.

If I hadn’t given my money away, I’d have had more than anyone else on the planet.

When I ask people to give, I can’t be on television if they don’t; I can’t help people, if I don’t – I mean, it takes money.

We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.

Men should be either treated generously or destroyed, because they take revenge for slight injuries – for heavy ones they cannot.

Giving should be entered into in just the same way as investing. Giving is investing.

Give to everyone who begs from you; and of him who takes away your goods do not ask them again. And as you wish that men would do to you, do so to them.

There are people who can do all fine and heroic things but one – keep from telling their happiness to the unhappy.

Love grows by giving. The love we give away is the only love we keep. The only way to retain love is to give it away.

The greatest gift is a portion of thyself.

Love is the missing factor; there is a lack of affection, of warmth in relationship; and because we lack that love, that tenderness, that generosity, that mercy in relationship, we escape into mass action, which produces further confusion, further misery.

The giving of love is an education in itself.

I bet taxpayers remember providing more than $812 billion to Citigroup and Bank of America, two Wall Street banks, in 2009 to bail them out during the 2008 financial crisis. Taxpayers remember that generosity; big banks evidently don’t.

The only big things I’ve purchased are my dad’s heart valve and a Rolls-Royce for my parents, for their anniversary. And that was only because my dad had a Lady Gaga license plate on our old car and it was making me crazy because he was getting followed everywhere, so I bought him a new car.

What is thine is mine, and all mine is thine.

The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your riches but to reveal to him his own.

When we are thinking about stuff like embeds, we are not thinking about how we are competing with YouTube. We are thinking about how are we going to make it more useful for people to share stuff on Facebook.

Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth.

Truth is a deep kindness that teaches us to be content in our everyday life and share with the people the same happiness.

There is something about building up a comradeship – that I still believe is the greatest of all feats – and sharing in the dangers with your company of peers. It’s the intense effort, the giving of everything you’ve got. It’s really a very pleasant sensation.

To practice five things under all circumstances constitutes perfect virtue; these five are gravity, generosity of soul, sincerity, earnestness, and kindness.

Open Graph is a language for structuring content and sharing that goes on in other apps, and we’re continuing to build it out longer term. But we found we need to build more specific experiences around categories like music or movies. Where we’ve taken the time to build those specific experiences, stuff has gone quite well.

That’s the true spirit of Christmas; people being helped by people other than me.

What I like to drink most is wine that belongs to others.

In a time of domestic crisis, men of goodwill and generosity should be able to unite regardless of party or politics.

Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get – only with what you are expecting to give – which is everything.

You may be rich, but there is one thing you can’t afford – that is, if you are a good sort – you can’t afford to spend money on your own luxuries while there are people around you wanting the necessaries of life.

Saving faith is an immediate relation to Christ, accepting, receiving, resting upon Him alone, for justification, sanctification, and eternal life by virtue of God’s grace.

There are many people in South Africa who are rich and who can share those riches with those not so fortunate who have not been able to conquer poverty.

Do something for somebody everyday for which you do not get paid.

You make more money if you’re generous.

Beautiful music is the art of the prophets that can calm the agitations of the soul; it is one of the most magnificent and delightful presents God has given us.

One can not reflect in streaming water. Only those who know internal peace can give it to others.

No one would remember the Good Samaritan if he’d only had good intentions; he had money as well.

I just received the following wire from my generous Daddy; Dear Jack, Don’t buy a single vote more than is necessary. I’ll be damned if I’m going to pay for a landslide.

What humility does for one is it reminds us that there are people before me. I have already been paid for. And what I need to do is prepare myself so that I can pay for someone else who has yet to come but who may be here and needs me.

One isn’t necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can’t be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest.

Pity may represent little more than the impersonal concern which prompts the mailing of a check, but true sympathy is the personal concern which demands the giving of one’s soul.

Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.

Christmas is a tonic for our souls. It moves us to think of others rather than of ourselves. It directs our thoughts to giving.

For many, Christmas is also a time for coming together. But for others, service will come first.

The Lord commonly gives riches to foolish people, to whom he gives nothing else.

Stay humble and be concerned for the less fortunate.

Oh, how I would like a poor Church, and for the poor.

I ordered each man to be presented with something, as strings of ten or a dozen glass beads apiece, and thongs of leather, all which they estimated highly; those which came on board I directed should be fed with molasses.

I am the most helpful and open up doors for everyone and I like to share.
