“You give but little when you give of your possessions; it is when you give of yourself that you truly give. For what are your possessions but things you keep and guard for fear you may need them tomorrow? And what is fear of need but need itself.” Kkalil Gibran, The prophet, 1923.
"Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a little." (Edmund Burke, political thinker, 1729-97)
