Giving Quotes
A noble shalt thou have, and present pay;
And liquor likewise will I give to thee,
And friendship shall combine, and brotherhood.
William Shakespeare
A poet once said, "The whole universe is in a glass of wine." We will probably never know in what sense he meant that, for poets do not write to be understood... How vivid is the claret, pressing its existence into the consciousness that watches it! If our small minds, for some convenience, divide this glass of wine, this universe, into parts - physics, biology, geology, astronomy, psychology, and so on - remember that nature does not know it! So let us put it all back together, not forgetting ultimately what it is for. Let it give us one more final pleasure: drink it and forget it all!
Richard Feynman
Give me a guitar and I'll play; give me a stage and I'll perform; give me an auditorium and I'll fill it.

Elayne Boosler
They should give until it hurts, maybe a very small thing, maybe just a packet of cigarettes, but instead of by smoking that one packet, maybe I share that packet with somebody who has not got even one cigarette, and that's the beginning of love, to give until it hurts.
Mother Teresa
So in the act of giving, we distinguish ourselves from ourselves. In giving, we give ourselves and still remain ourselves.
Walter Kasper
Place a substantial meal before a tired man and he will eat with effort and be little better for it at first. Give him a glass of wine or brandy, and immediately he feels better: you see him come to life again before you.
Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin
A lot of people are happy to give money to charities but are wary of giving through taxes because they feel it doesn't produce any value.
Leila Janah
Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need.
Khalil Gibran
When you perform with a live audience, the audience comes back to you, so that you and the audience are giving to each other, in a sense. It's an extraordinary thing. It's wild turf up there.
Al Pacino
