Jean de la Bruyere, French Philosopher
Liberality consists less in giving a great deal than in gifts well-timed.
Jean de la Bruyere, French Philosopher
Music should probably provide answers in terms of lyrical content, and giving people a sense of togetherness and oneness, as opposed to being alone in their thoughts and dilemmas or regrets or happiness or whatever.

Conrad Bums, -
Giving birth is like taking your lower lip and forcing it over your head.

Leo Buscaglia, American Author (1924-1998)
I have zero desire, just so you know, to be in the limelight. I don't think it's good for the country to have a former president criticize his successor. You're not going to see me giving my opinions in the public arena, until I start selling my book. I'm going to emerge then submerge.
George W. Bush, American President (1946-  )
Giving frees us from the familiar territory of our own needs by opening our mind to the unexplained worlds occupied by the needs of others.
Barbara Bush, American First Lady (1925-  )
The joy of giving is indeed a pleasure, especially when you get rid of something you don't want.
Frank Butler, -
That's what really makes great skating competitions. When you have two top skaters in good form giving superb performances.
Dick Button, American Athlete (1929-  )
I am always joking and always clowning, giving and helping.
Red Buttons, American Comedian (1919-2006)
Publishing your work is important. Even if you are giving a piece to some smaller publication for free, you will learn something about your writing. The editor will say something, friends will mention it. You will learn.
Tim Cahill, Australian Athlete (1979-  )
You have a wine tasting of different years, and we're sort of doing that with our music, giving them a taste of what Journey used to be like.
