Daisy Goodwin... anyone can acquire wealth, the real art is giving it away.
About This Quote
Giving something away is an act of generosity, and sharing is one of the most important ways to connect with other people. Giving away something that you've worked for over a long period of time is an act of true generosity. The gift makes you feel good about yourself because you're doing something nice for someone else. It also allows the receiver to know that you're not just using them.
