Love grows by giving. The love we give away is the only love we keep. The only way to retain love is to give it away. No matter what you've done for yourself or for humanity, if you can't look back on having given love and attention to your own family, what have you really accomplished? The love we give away is the only love we keep. Human service is the highest form of self-interest for the person who serves. Character is the result of two things: mental attitude and the way we spend our time. Charity is a thing that begins at home, and usually stays there. Don't make excuses--make good. Every knock is a boost. Every life is its own excuse for being. Everything comes too late for those who only wait. |
