“Giving material goods is one form of generosity, but one can extend an attitude of generosity into all one's behavior. Being kind, attentive, and honest in dealing with others, offering praise where it is due, giving comfort and advice where they are needed, and simply sharing one's time with someone - all these are forms of generosity, and they do not require any particular level of material wealth.”

“Giving means extending one's love with no conditions, no expectations and no boundaries. . . Peace of minds occurs, therefore, when we put all our attention into giving and have no desire to get anything from, or to change, another person. . . The giving motivation leads to a sense of inner peace and joy that is unrelated to time.”

“Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys.”

“Giving my life to you may mean leading a very ordinary life or it may mean leading an extraordinary life. It may mean having a family and a career or it may mean going beyond all that to just work for others. It's hard to say. Rather than making a decision myself, I'm going to give my life to you, to do with as you will, because I know that you are my self, you are my very being.”

“Giving people like me a green card, a passport, and a driver's license? That's not going to be the end of the immigration conversation and debate in this country.

Which is why when we started this campaign, we didn't call it Define Immigrant, we called it Define American. That's the question. That's what's at stake.”

“Giving power to other people’s opinions will make you a prisoner to them – so never let someone else’s opinion define your reality.” “অন্যের মতামতকে বেশি ক্ষমতা দিলে আপনি তাদের কাছে বন্দী হয়ে যাবেন- তাই , কখনো কারো মতামতকে আপনার বাস্তবতাকে সংজ্ঞায়িত করতে দেবেন না।”

“Giving primacy to God means having the courage to say ‘no’ to evil, ‘no’ to violence, ‘no’ to oppression, to live a life in service of others and which fosters lawfulness and the common good. When a person discovers God, the true treasure, he abandons a selfish lifestyle and seeks to share with others the charity which comes from God. He who becomes a friend of God, loves his brothers and sisters, commits himself to safeguarding their life and their health, and also to respecting the environment and nature.”
