In generosity we are equally singular, acquiring our friends by conferring, not by receiving, favours.” KnowsPersonsDifferencesDecisionPleasureUnitedDangerIgnoranceHighestReflectionFruitGenerosityEnterpriseHardshipDaringReceivingFavourPalmsTemptedShrinksHesitationDeliberation Book:History of Greece Source: History of Greece

“Let every creature have your love. Love, with its fruits of meekness, patience, and humility, is all that we can wish for ourselves and our fellow creatures. For this is to live in God, united with him, both for time and eternity.
