Giving Quotes

Give, give something, give anything, always remember to give! There are different giving quotes that everyone should read in order to understand the importance of giving. I believe that everyone lives because other people live as well. So, it would sound realistic to say that it would everyone should ensure the happiness of his/her neighbor. The following are top 15 most inspiring quotes about giving, and after reading them, or just some of them, I bet that you will immediately feel like giving.

1. “No one has ever become poor by giving.” ―Anne Frank
Usually, there is no person that becomes poor because s/he has given something to someone else. In most cases, we give what is extra to what we earn or just a small portion of what we earn. Therefore, it is not possible that a person can give everything s/he has and remains poor. After giving, there is something that remains, and the giver or donor relies on the remaining items to survive. 

2. “Remember that the happiest people are not those getting more, but those giving more.” ―H. Jackson Brown Jr.
This is clear to everyone. Giving build this happiness inside one's heart, and you can still see them having happy faces. This happens as a result of knowing that there is someone who is living another day because of your impact or efforts. Therefore, the more you give, the more happiness you have. People who earn a lot of money and are reluctant to give do not experience more happiness as those who constantly get things and give some to the poor. 

3. Happiness doesn’t result from what we get, but from what we give.” ―Ben Carson

This quote has the almost the same meaning as the second one. This is because there is happiness in giving in both quotes. It means that we become happier by giving not getting. 

4. “Since you get more joy out of giving joy to others, you should put a good deal of thought into the happiness that you are able to give.” ―Eleanor Roosevelt

As long as one knows that they are happy when they give, they should do whatever it costs to ensure that the happiness we want to give to others is equivalent to what we want to get in return. in case one needs much happiness, they have to make people much happier. 

5. “We must give more in order to get more. It is the generous giving of ourselves that produces the generous harvest.” ―Orison Swett Marden

This quote actually means that what we give should be proportional to what we want to get in return. It means that if one wants more, they have to invest more. 

6. “We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give.” ―Winston S. Churchill

Giving is a survival. Whenever one gives, they survive more or just get the means to survive. One cannot gain financial means out of giving, but even the happiness that is earned contributes to the good health of the person giving.  

7. “For it is in giving that we receive.” ―St. Francis of Assisi

St. Francis of Assisi said it in a good manner that we only gain from what we give. Here, St. Francis of Assisi wanted to mean that giving can be an investment.

8. “It is every man’s obligation to put back into the world at least the equivalent of what he takes out of it.” ―Albert Einstein

This makes a good sense of humanity. If the person gains something from the world, that person has to do something to the world equivalent to what s/he had gained from it.

9. “Think of giving not as a duty but as a privilege.” ―John D. Rockefeller Jr.

As long as there is something that one gets out of helping others, that should be taken as something good other than what one has to do. 

10. “The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.” ―Pablo Picasso

Actually, life is a gift. The purpose of having life should be giving that life away to other people. This means that one has to share good life to the people in need; one has to sacrifice for the wellbeing of others, and this is a true meaning of reaching the purpose of life. 

11. “I have found that among its other benefits, giving liberates the soul of the giver.” ―Maya Angelou

The fact that giving makes one have the happiness, we can also say that that leads to the liberation of one's soul. There is this freedom that a person gets after helping someone else. I do not know how you feel when you help, but for me, I feel like achieving something big; I feel at ease and relaxed. 

12. “Giving is a long-term investment.” -Jean Paul Nayiti. I invented this quote after realizing that when we help, we gain something that lasts longer than we expect. When we give, we build up a strong relationship with those we give, and that relationship helps us to survive better than before. Giving is an investment because today you give something to someone and tomorrow you get something back from the person that you had helped. However, giving does not lead to mutual benefits, and it is not a gain-gain situation. 

13. “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.”
 —Mahatma Gandhi

This quote wants to mean that a person gets to know who they really are or get to be who they want to be by helping other people. 

14. “Those who are happiest are those who do the most for others.”
 —Booker T. Washington

This quote proves that the people with much happiness are those who give or support others in need. 

15. “The best thing to do with the best things in life is to give them away.”
Dorothy Day

Having said all the above, it is clear that the quotes show us the goodies in giving. So, it should be everyone's duty to realize those who need help and support them as much as one could.
