In honor of May Day I thought I would share some charity related quotes instead of the usual innovation related quotes.
“We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give.”
– Sir Winston Churchill
“You will find, as you look back on your life, that the moments that stand out are the moments when you have done things for others.”
– Henry Drummond
“We must maximize our innovation leverage at every level of society. A stable society demands that businesses, governments, and charities work together to create an efficient ecosystem that injects hope into the populace.”
– Braden Kelley
“Charity and personal force are the only investments worth anything.”
– Walt Whitman
“I am only one; but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; I will not refuse to do the something I can do.”
– Helen Keller
“Make it a rule…never to lie down at night without being able to say, ‘I have made one human being at least a little wiser, a little happier or a little better this day’.”
– Charles Kingsley
