 Charity
Quote Rating
Too many have dispensed with generosity in order to practice charity.   (Albert Camus)
Charity sees the need not the cause.   (German Proverb)
A bone to the dog is not charity. Charity is the bone shared with the dog, when you are just as hungry as the dog.   (Jack London)
The charity that hastens to proclaim its good deeds, ceases to be charity, and is only pride and ostentation.   (William Hutton)
Be charitable before wealth makes thee covetous.   (Sir Thomas Browne)
The best thing to give to your enemy is forgiveness; to an opponent, tolerance; to a friend, your heart; to your child, a good example; to a father, deference; to your mother, conduct that will make her proud of you; to yourself, respect; to all men, charity.   (Francis Maitland Balfour)
Charity begins at home.   (Terence Andria)
One of the serious obstacles to the improvement of our race is indiscriminate charity.   (Andrew Carnegie)
In charity there is no excess.   (Sir Francis Bacon Of Goodness and Goodness of Nature)
The living need charity more than the dead.   (George Arnold The Jolly Old Pedagogue)
So long as faith with freedom reigns
And loyal hope survives,
And gracious charity remains
To leaven lowly lives;
While there is one untrodden tract
For intellect or will,
And men are free to think and act,
Life is worth living still.
  (Alfred Austin)
