“If you put these five things together - you can't use money to attract talent, you can't advertise, you can't take risks, you can't invest in long-term results, and you don't have a stock market - then we have just put the humanitarian sector at the most extreme disadvantage to the for-profit sector on every level, and then we call the whole system charity, as if there is something incredibly sweet about it.” IfsLongWholeUseTogetherTermLevelsResultsFiveRiskTalentSweetCharityProfitExtremesHumanitarianLong TermDisadvantages Book:Charity Case: How the Nonprofit Community Can Stand Up For Itself and Really Change the World Source: Charity Case: How the Nonprofit Community Can Stand Up For Itself and Really Change the World
“I want to take the word Christianity back to Christ himself, back to that mighty heart whose pulse seems to throb through the world today, that endless fountain of charity out of which I believe has come all true progress and all civilization that deserves the name. I go back to that great Spirit which contemplated a sacrifice for the whole of humanity. That sacrifice is not one of exclusion, but of an infinite and endless and joyous inclusion. And I thank God for it.” WorldWantBelieveHeartWholeSeemsSpiritHumanityNamesI BelieveChristChristianityProgressSacrificeCivilizationDeserveInfiniteCharityEndlessThank GodInclusionFountainPulseJoyousExclusionGreat Spirit Author:Julia Ward Howe
“The constitutionality and propriety of the Federal Government assuming to enter into a novel and vast field of legislation, namely, that of providing for the care and support of all those ... who by any form of calamity become fit objects of public philanthropy. ... I cannot find any authority in the Constitution for making the Federal Government the great almoner of public charity throughout the United States. To do so would, in my judgment, be contrary to the letter and spirit of the Constitution and subversive of the whole theory upon which the Union of these States is founded.” StatesWholeGovernmentCareFormSpiritUnitedPowerUnited StatesSupportNovelFieldsObjectsTheoryFitAuthorityJudgmentLettersConstitutionAssumingUnionsCharityContraryWelfareProvidingPhilanthropyLegislationFederal GovernmentCalamitySubversivePropriety Author:Franklin Pierce
“Let us pray for the Catholic Church; for the Churches throughout the whole world; that is, for their truth, unity, and stability; that in all charity may flourish, and truth may live. For our own Church, that what is lacking in it may be supplied; what is unsound, corrected; that all Heresies, Schisms, Scandals, as well public as private, may be removed. Correct the wandering, convert the unbelieving, increase the faith of the Church, destroy Heresies, discover the crafty enemies, crush the violent.” WorldWellsMayWholeChurchEnemyPrayingIncreaseCatholicUnityCharityViolentWhole WorldWanderCrushStabilityLackingScandalCatholic ChurchHeresyCraftySchism Book:Private Prayers Source: Private Prayers
