Life Quotes... Charity & Philanthropy

“No man actually owns a fortune.  It owns him.”
                                                A. P. Giannini

“Understanding human needs is half the job of meeting them.”
                                                Adlai E. Stevenson

“It is with narrow-souled people as with narrow-necked bottles: the less they have in them the more noise they make in pouring it out.”
                                                Alexander Pope

“Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind.”
                                                Bertrand Russell

“If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else.”
                                                Booker T. Washington

“No person was ever honored for what he received.  Honor has been the reward for what he gave.”
                                                Calvin Coolidge

“Money is like manure.  If you spread it around, it does a lot of good, but if you pile it up in one place, it stinks like hell.”
                                                Clint W. Murchison

“Let us not paralyze our capacity for good by brooding over man’s capacity for evil.”
                                                David Sarnoff

“When we grow old, there can only be one regret - not to have given enough of ourselves.”
                                                Eleonora Duse

“Plenty of people despise money, but few know how to give it away.”
                                                Francois de La Rochefoucauld

                                                DeWitt Wallace

“The desire for power in excess caused angels to fall; the desire for knowledge in excess caused man to fall; but in charity is no excess, neither can man or angels come into danger by it.”
                                                Francis Bacon

“Charity is the power of defending that which we know to be indefensible.  Hope is the power of being cheerful in circumstances which we know to be desperate.”
                                                G. K. Chesterton

“The worst sin toward our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them: that’s the essence of inhumanity.”
                                                George Bernard Shaw

“‘Tis always more blessed to give than to receive; for example, wedding presents.”
                                                H. L. Mencken

“The Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea are made of the same water.  It flows down, clear and cool, from the heights of Hermon and the roots of the cedars of Lebanon.  The Sea of Galilee makes beauty of it, for the Sea of Galilee has an outlet, It gets to give. It gathers in its riches that it may pour them out again to fertilize the Jordan plain.  But the Dead Sea with the same water makes horror.  But the Dead Sea has no outlet.  It gets to keep.”
                                                Harry Emerson Fosdick

“Science may have found a cure for most evils; but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all - the apathy of human beings.”
                                                Helen Keller

“Philanthropy is almost the only virtue which is sufficiently appreciated by mankind.”
                                                Henry David Thoreau

“Sometimes give your services for nothing.”
                                                Hippocrates

“Money-giving is a very good criterion . . . of a person’s mental health.  Generous people are rarely mentally ill people.”
                                                Karl A. Menninger

Once asked what action he would recommend if a person were to feel a nervous breakdown coming on:  “Lock up your house, go across the railroad tracks, and find someone in need and do something for him.”
                                                Karl A. Menninger

“Everybody wants to do something to help, but nobody wants to be first.”
                                                Pearl Bailey

“We cannot exist without mutual help.  All, therefore, that need aid have a right to ask it from their fellow men, and no one who has the power of granting can refuse it without guilt.”
                                                Sir Walter Scott

“Charity begins at home.”
                                                Terence

“As the purse is emptied the heart is filled.”
                                                Victor Hugo

“A man’s true wealth is the good he does in this world.”

“Give a man a fish and he will live for a day; give him a net, and he will live for a lifetime.”
