More quotations tagged with “generosity” The belief that unhappiness is selfless and happiness is selfish is misguided. It's more selfless to act happy. It takes energy, generosity, and discipline to be unfailingly lighthearted, yet everyone takes the happy person for granted. No one is careful of his feelings or tries to keep his spirits high.

And because happiness seems unforced, that person usually gets no credit. —Gretchen Rubin in The Happiness Project More about this quote Tags: happiness belief effort generosity feelings discipline energy unhappiness selfishness care selflessness lightheartedness Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one. —Mother Teresa More about this quote Tags: hunger giving generosity charity Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email The return we reap from generous actions is not always evident. —Francesco Guicciardini More about this quote Tags: generosity karma Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email We are here on earth to do good to others.

Remember magic. And, finally, believe you are part of a groundswell, a resistance, a seemingly small but actually very, very large impending karmic overhaul, a great shift, the beginning of something important and potent and unstoppable. —Mark Morford More about this quote Tags: war humanity beauty religion change world art temptation generosity magic resistance environment fatalism Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email
