Benefits, like flowers, please most when they are fresh.

Charity gives itself rich; covetousness hoards itself poor.

Many look with one eye at what they give, but with seven at what they receive.

Charity sees the need, not the cause.

They who give have all things; they who withhold have nothing.

Charity covers a multitude of sins.

May your charity increase as much as your wealth.

He that feeds upon charity has a cold dinner and no supper.

Whatever is given to the poor, is laid out of the reach of fortune.

The charitable give out at the door and God puts in at the window.
