"Generosity is giving more than you can,..." - Quote by Khalil Gibran
Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need.

More on Generosity
“We think that we are generous because we credit our neighbor with those virtues that are likely to benefit ourselves. We praise the banker that we may overdraw our account, and find good qualities in the highwayman in the hope that he may spare our pockets.”
“Help another and you will be the one who benefits most”
“I have manifested everything I want in the way of physical things. I have a beautiful family and enough abundance to take care of them. I put my attention on manifesting for other people, helping those who are less fortunate.”
More on Pride
“Nothing ought more to humiliate men who have merited great praise than the care they still take to boast of little things.”
“I make bold to say that it is profitable for the proud to fall, in order that they may be humbled in that for which they have exalted themselves.”
“A man given to pride is usually proud of the wrong thing.”
