GENEROSITY See also: Charity; Giving; Kindness | 慷慨 |
The quickest generosity is the best. 想對人慷慨,那就越快越好。 |
Liberality was formerly
called honesty, as if to imply that unless we are liberal we are not honest, either toward
God or man. Tryon Edwards 以前人稱慷慨無私為誠實,這意味著除非我們慷慨,否則無論對上帝或是對人都一樣會不誠實。 |
He who is not liberal with what he has, does but
deceive himself when he thinks he would be liberal if he had more. William S. Plumer 一個不願將自己現在所有慷慨捐輸的人若以為只要自己財富增加就會慷慨捐輸,根本就是自欺欺人。 |
A generous action is its own
reward. William Walsh 慷慨捐輸本身就是最佳回報。 |
He who gives what he would as readily throw away,
gives without generosity; for the essence of generosity is in self sacrifice. Henry Taylor 一個將自己想扔掉的東西給別人的,堪稱闕如慷慨的給予;慷慨的本質是自我犧牲。 |
