Weve all heard that charity begins in the home, but charity quotes help us to see the bigger picture, the importance of helping our fellow man through our generous donation of time, money and most important, compassion for one another. Few people in this world can go it alone, and charity quotes help us understand our unique role in society, one where we help those in need, knowing that we too could be in need somewhere down the road. Charity not only lifts the lives of others, but our own spirits as well, as we are rewarded many times over for a simple act of selflessness.
Reference.com Definition of Charity
Charity on Wikipedia.org
"Anticipate charity by preventing poverty; assist the reduced fellow man, either by a considerable gift or a sum of money or by teaching him a trade or by putting him in the way of business so that he may earn an honest livelihood and not be forced to the dreadful alternative of holding out his hand for charity. This is the highest step and summit of charity's golden ladder."
