- Mother Teresa99◆ It's easy to run to others. It's so hard to stand on one's own record. You can fake virtue for an audience. You can't fake it in your own eyes. Your ego is your strictest judge. They run from it. They spend their lives running. It's easier to donate a few thousand to charity and think oneself noble than to base self-respect on personal standards of personal achievement. It's simple to seek substitutes for competence--such easy substitutes: love, charm, kindness, charity. But there is no substitute for competence.
- Ayn Rand99◆ Carve your name on hearts, not tombstones. A legacy is etched into the minds of others and the stories they share about you.
- Shannon L. Alder99◆ To ease another's heartache is to forget one's own.
- Abraham Lincoln99◆ When you think yours is the only true path you forever chain yourself to judging others and narrow the vision of God. The road to righteousness and arrogance is a parallel road that can intersect each other several times throughout a person's life. It's often hard to recognize one road from another. What makes them different is the road to righteousness is paved with the love of humanity. The road to arrogance is paved with the love of self.
- Shannon L. Alder99◆ Charity, if you have the means, is a personal choice, but charity which is expected or compelled is simply a polite word for slavery.
- Terry Goodkind99◆ If you're in the luckiest one per cent of humanity, you owe it to the rest of humanity to think about the other 99 per cent.
- Warren Buffett99◆ In charity to all mankind, bearing no malice or ill will to any human being, and even compassionating those who hold in bondage their fellow men, not knowing what they do.
- John Quincy Adams99◆ Once poverty is gone, we'll need to build museums to display its horrors to future generations. They'll wonder why poverty continued so long in human society - how a few people could live in luxury while billions dwelt in misery, deprivation and despair.
- Muhammad Yunus99◆ Sometimes your light shines so bright that it blinds people from seeing who you really are.
- Shannon L. Alder99◆ Those who are happiest are those who do the most for others.
- Booker T. Washington99◆ You have to get lost before you can be found.
- Jeff Rasley99◆ When we want to help the poor, we usually offer them charity. Most often we use charity to avoid recognizing the problem and finding the solution for it. Charity becomes a way to shrug off our responsibility. But charity is no solution to poverty. Charity only perpetuates poverty by taking the initiative away from the poor. Charity allows us to go ahead with our own lives without worrying about the lives of the poor. Charity appeases our consciences.
- Muhammad Yunus99◆ Charity . . . is the opium of the privileged.
- Chinua Achebe99◆ The most treasured and sacred moments of our lives are those filled with the spirit of love. The greater the measure of our love, the greater is our joy. In the end, the development of such love is the true measure of success in life.
- Joseph B Wirthlin99
