God's grace and forgiveness, while free to the recipient, are always costly for the giver.

Timothy Keller

But then, gifts are like beauty, are they not. It is in the eye of the recipient that they find their seat, not in the hand of the giver.

J.R. Ward

It's very Western to idealize a kind of love that does not come with any expectations, that still permits both the giver and recipient to be completely free.

Jenny Zhang

There is no word for the recipient of the love. There is only a word for the giver. There is the assumption that lovers come in pairs.

David Levithan

The way I understand gifts is that the giver must make a sacrifice, create an uneven exchange, bring himself closer to the recipient, create change and do it all with the right spirit.

Seth Godin

One service to need heals an ancient wound.

Mary Anne Radmacher

God's grace and forgiveness, while free to the recipient, are always costly for the giver. From the earliest parts of the Bible, it was understood that God could not forgive without sacrifice. No one who is seriously wronged can “just forgive” the perpetrator.

Timothy Keller

Saltwater heals, healing referring to its various forms; tears, cleanses and heals the soul; sweat, cleanses through labor; the ocean, heals in all its forms.

Rabindranath Tagore

I used to think mercy meant showing kindness to someone who didn't deserve it, as if only the recipient defined the act. The girl in between has learned that mercy is defined by its giver. Our flaws are obvious, yet we are loved and able to love, if we choose, because there is that bit of the divine still smoldering in us.

Susan Meissner

Loving service anonymously given may be unknown to man-but the gift and the giver are known to God.

Thomas S. Monson

Flattery corrupts both the receiver and the giver; and adulation is not of more service to the people than to kings.

Edmund Burke

Before giving, the mind of the giver is happy; while giving, the mind of the giver is made peaceful; and having given, the mind of the giver is uplifted.

Gautama Buddha

Without community service, we would not have a strong quality of life. It's important to the person who serves as well as the recipient. It's the way in which we ourselves grow and develop.
