People like givers, people want to help givers. I get stuff all the time.

Patch Adams

I think the great livers, the people who are fully self-actualizing and alive, are the great givers.

Mark Victor Hansen

I lived in London for a time in the '90s and I love it here. You know, I just go and see shows and have great dinners and walk around.

Elizabeth Peyton

Good givers are great getters.

Russell Simmons

He lay back for a little in his bed thinking about the smells of food . . . of the intoxicating breath of bakeries and dullness of buns. . . . He planned dinners, of enchanting aromatic foods . . . endless dinners, in which one could alternate flavour with flavour from sunset to dawn without satiety, while one breathed great draughts of the bouquet of old brandy.

Evelyn Waugh

My father said there were two kinds of people in the world: givers and takers. The takers may eat better, but the givers sleep better.

Marlo Thomas

My father (Danny Thomas) used to tell me there are two kinds of people, the takers and the givers. 'The takers sometimes eat better,' he would say, 'but the givers always sleep better.'

Marlo Thomas

When you let the wolves guard the hen house, there's bound to be a few chicken dinners.

James St. James

One of the great ball-givers in the United Kingdom is Nicholas Parsons.

Derek Nimmo

The great thing about a culture of givers is that's not a delusion - it's reality.

Adam Grant

Society is composed of two great classes those who have more dinners than appetite, and those who have more appetite than dinners.

Nicolas Chamfort

Society is composed of two great classes, those that have more dinners than appetite, and those who have more appetite than dinners.

Nicolas Chamfort

It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not know your enemies but do know yourself, you will win one and lose one; if you do not know your enemies nor yourself, you will be imperiled in every single battle.

Sun Tzu

You know what I hate? Indian givers... no, I take that back.

Emo Philips

A very few, as heroes, patriots, martyrs, reformers in the great sense, and men, serve the state with their conscience also, and so necessarily resist it for the most part, and they are commonly treated as enemies by it.

Henry David Thoreau

We are better givers than getters, not because we are generous people, but because we are proud, arrogant people. The Christmas story-the one according to Luke, not Dickens-is not about how blessed it is to be givers but about how essential it is to see ourselves as receivers.

William Henry Willimon
