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

Getters don't get - givers get.

Elden Benge

I want a change, and a radical change. I want a change from an acquisitive society to a functional society, from a society of go-getters to a society of go-givers.

Peter Maurin

But whenever she thanks the givers for favors great and small, she thinks of the good little sister who gave her more than they all.

Phoebe Cary

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

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

Givers of great dinners know few enemies.

Martial

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

Good counsel rejected returns to enrich the givers bosom.

Oliver Goldsmith

This is what I find most magnetic about successful givers: they get to the top without cutting others down, finding ways of expanding the pie that benefit themselves and the people around them. Whereas success is zero-sum in a group of takers, in groups of givers, it may be true that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.

Adam Grant

I come from a family of go-getters.

Victoria Arlen

My kids are go-getters. They organise things.

Sussanne Khan

When you give of yourself something new comes in to being... the world expands, a bit of goodness is brought forth and a small miracle occurs. You must never underestimate this miracle. Too many good people think they have to become Mother Teresa or Albert Schweitzer, or even Santa Claus, and perform great acts if they are to be givers. They don't see the simple openings of the heart that can be practiced anywhere with almost anyone.
