“We depend on the generosity of the citizens here to make the program the success it is today. We are always so grateful for the Grand Prairie spirit.”
Amy Branson
“The only barrier for what you can do tomorrow is the doubt of today's.”
Michal Baca
“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children...to leave the world a better place...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“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
“Liberalism -- it is well to recall this today -- is the supreme form of generosity; it is the right which the majority concedes to minorities and hence it is the noblest cry that has ever resounded in this planet. It announces the determination to share existence with the enemy; more than that, with an enemy which is weak.”
Jose Ortega y Gasset
“A really great man is known by three signs: generosity in the design, humanity in the execution, moderation in success”
Otto von Bismarck
“You are forgiven for your happiness and your successes only if you generously consent to share them.”
Albert Camus
