sharing quotes

Carolyn Wells: 

Advice is one of those things it is far more blessed to give than to receive.

Don Marquis: 

There is nothing we like to see so much as the gleam of pleasure in a person's eye when he feels that we have sympathized with him, understood him. At these moments something fine and spiritual passes between two friends. These are the moments worth living.

Elie Wiesel: 

Friendship marks a life even more deeply than love. Love risks degenerating into obsession, friendship is never anything but sharing.

Henry Miller: 

A book lying idle on a shelf is wasted ammunition. Like money, books must be kept in constant circulation. Lend and borrow to the maximum -- of both books and money! But especially books, for books represent infinitely more than money. A book is not only a friend, it makes friends for you. When you have possessed a book with mind and spirit, you are enriched. But when you pass it on you are enriched threefold.

James M. Barrie: 

Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others, cannot keep it from themselves.

Mohandas Gandhi: 

The Roots of Violence: 
Wealth without work, 
Pleasure without conscience, 
Knowledge without character, 
Commerce without morality, 
Science without humanity, 
Worship without sacrifice, 
Politics without principles.

Norman MacEwan: 

Happiness is not so much in having as sharing. We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.

Tenneva Jordan: 

A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie.
