“To wear your heart on your sleeve isn't a very good plan; you should wear it inside, where it functions best.”
Margaret Thatcher
“Generosity is another quality which, like patience, letting go, non-judging, and trust, provides a solid foundation for mindfulness practice. You might experiment with using the cultivation of generosity as a vehicle for deep self-observation and inquiry as well as an exercise in giving. A good place to start is with yourself. See if you can give yourself gifts that may be true blessings, such as self-acceptance, or some time each day with no purpose. Practice feeling deserving enough to accept these gifts without obligation-to simply receive from yourself, and from the universe.”
Jon Kabat-Zinn
“Teach this triple truth to all: A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity.”
Buddha
“Plant the seeds of Love in your hearts. Let them grow into trees of Service and shower the sweet fruit of Ananda. Share the Ananda with all. That is the proper way to celebrate the Birthday.”
Sri Sathya Sai Baba
“Fernand Point's philosophy instilled what cuisine is all about: generosity and hugeness of heart.”
Charlie Trotter
“The greatest source of America's generosity is not our government; it's the good heart of the American people.”
George W. Bush
“Better a heart of gold and an empty pocket than an empty heart and a pocket of gold.”
