Please anyone explain me the following quotations in around 50 words.

1) "Generosity consists in not the sum given, but the manner in which it is bestowed."

2) "Sometimes generosity brings trouble."

Plz answer quick......Tomorrow is my Final Exam.

“Generosity consists in not the sum given, but the manner in which it is bestowed”: The quote is by M. K. Gandhi. It implies that more than amount it is the emotion or feeling or sentiment with which one contributes the amount matters. If one gives away millions, however, not with ardour, it is waste and not charity.

 

“Sometimes generosity brings trouble.”: There are times when something that is rightfully yours is not being given to you. At such times, you should not be generous to let it go away. You must stand up for your right and ask for it. Else you will be the one to lose it and will be in trouble.
