“No person was ever honored

for what he
received;

honor has been the
reward

for what he
gave.”

— Calvin
Coolidge

This
Calvin Coolidge quote sort of puts giving into perspective in my opinion.
Voltaire says this sentiment similarly with, “I know of no great man except
those who have rendered great services to the human race.”

Some
people think that successful people get there on the backs of others, but Mark
Caine states the facts clearly with, The successful man doesn’t use others,
other people use the successful man, for above all the success is of
service.”

Next
time I’m thinking about what I’m getting, should be getting, or not getting,
these quotes will hopefully bring me to my senses!
