"If you are not generous when it's..." - Quote by Wayne Dyer
If you are not generous when it's difficult, you will not be generous when it's easy. Generosity is a function of the heart, not the wallet.

“In reality, it's much easier not to smoke or eat chocolate than to do so. It's your mind that convinces you otherwise.”
“What comes out when life squeezes you? When someone hurts or offends you? If anger, pain and fear come out of you, it's because that's what's inside.”
“Every thought you have affects everything in your body.”

“The gift is to the giver, and comes back most to him - it cannot fail”
“The proper aim of giving is to put the recipient in a state where he no longer needs our gift.”
“And you receivers - and you are all receivers - assume no weight of gratitude, lest you lay a yoke upon yourself and upon him who gives. Rather rise together with the giver on his gifts as on wings; For to be overmindful of your debt, is to doubt his generosity who has the free hearted earth for mother, and God for father.”

“She was nothing more than a mere good-tempered, civil and obliging Young Woman; as such we could scarcely dislike her -- she was only an Object of Contempt”
“I choose my friends for their good looks, my acquaintances for their good characters, and my enemies for their intellects. A man cannot be too careful in the choice of his enemies.”
“Be dogmatically true, obstinately holy, immovably honest, desperately kind, fixedly upright.”
