Solomon ibn Gabirol, Judaic poet and liturgist of the 11th century

"Thou openest thine hand,

and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.

The Lord is righteous in all his ways,

and merciful in all his works.

The Lord is night unto all them that call upon him,

to all that call upon him in truth."

***

John D. Rockefeller, Jr.

"Money itself is lifeless, impotent, sterile…

but man with his brain, brawn and imagination,

using money as servant,

may feed the hungry,

cure the diseased,

make the desert places bloom,

and bring beauty into life."

***

Albert Schweitzer - Medical Missionary, Theologian and Philosopher:

"You must give some time to your fellow men.

Even if it's a little thing,

do something for others -

something for which you get no pay

but the privilege of doing it."
