Ciertos hombres de mal corazón creen reconciliarse con el cielo cuando dan una limosna.

El dinero consagrado a la beneficencia no tiene mérito si no representa un sacrificio, una privación.

Yo creo que el mejor medio de hacer bien a los pobres no es darles limosna, sino hacer que puedan vivir sin recibirla.

Si tienes mucho, da mucho; si tienes poco, da poco: pero da siempre.

Tirarle el hueso al perro no es caridad. Caridad es compartir el hueso con el perro cuando se está tan hambriento como él.

Encontramos la caridad en el mas alto nivel de la conciencia humana.

La caridad es el océano desde donde salen y a donde van a parar todas las demás virtudes.

Cada acto de caridad es un paso más hacia el cielo

Lo mejor que puedes dar a tu enemigo es el perdón; a un oponente, tolerancia; a un hijo, un buen ejemplo; a tu padre, deferencia; a tu madre, una conducta de la cual se enorgullezca; a ti mismo, respeto; a todos los hombres, caridad.

Quien toma bienes de los pobres es un asesino de la caridad. Quien a ellos ayuda, es un virtuoso de la justicia.

Tened siempre una gran caridad con todos, y nunca particularidades.

A los ojos de la caridad no es nunca pequeño el bien que se hace ni el mal que se evita.

Aprender a mirar al pobre desde su pobreza, al enfermo desde su enfermedad o al marginado desde su marginación, es el objetivo principal de una caridad bien entendida

Ayudar al débil es caridad; pretender ayudar al poderoso es orgullo.

El amor es la perfección del espíritu y la caridad es la perfección del amor

Hay una cosa que siempre nos asegurará el cielo: Los actos de caridad y bondad con los que llenamos nuestra vida.

Para que sea fructífera, la caridad debe costarnos un esfuerzo.

Nada les unirá más a Dios que la caridad.

Tengamos siempre encendida en nuestro corazón la llama de la caridad

La caridad es un deber; la elección de la forma, un derecho.

Producing suits me because I have a business mind and a business sensibility. I was a street hustler. I did whatever it took. I sold whatever I could sell. I'm a good organiser.

We always pay tribute to what the old Lynyrd Skynyrd has done - I'm very proud of that.

Toleration and liberty are the foundations of a great republic.

Psychologists have found that we are more likely, in looking back at our lives, to remember high points and dramatic shifts in far greater proportion than ongoing stretches of happiness or misery.

Back when I was growing up, it was like, 'You're too young to know what you want. We're telling you what you want. It doesn't matter if you like it. And you are stupid. Just so you know.'

In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.

I grew up in a very small town in Massachusetts, and it goes without saying that there weren't many Nigerian families in that town, and a lot of people couldn't say Uzoamaka.

I love dark chocolate. I love it.

The Amazons were notorious for their freedom: their sexual freedom, their freedom to hunt, to be outdoors, to go to war; and the Greeks, both men and women alike, were fascinated by these stories. Maybe it was a safe way to explore the idea of women who could be equals of men.

I never get bored talking about themes dealing with ambition, leadership and what it means to be an American. I love that stuff. I just love it. I've loved it ever since I was on 'The West Wing.'

Ninety-five percent of all writers who write do not get published, but 100 percent of all writers write because they have a voice in their head. The vast majority of writers simply write because they have to.

I would not fear nor wish my fate, but boldly say each night, tomorrow let my sun his beams display, or in clouds hide them; I have lived today.

A pen is different from the pad, the key, moving your fingers across a screen. I like both. I like to work on sketchbooks, big old white sketch paper. I like how that feels, and I like to put different media on it. Then there's the phone, smartphone, iPad: It's the new page, and it's not the same page anymore.

What the statesman is most anxious to produce is a certain moral character in his fellow citizens, namely a disposition to virtue and the performance of virtuous actions.
