"Get pictures of the things you want. Visualize your car, house, vacation. Get excited. Feel like it is already yours. Get enthusiastic about enjoying whatever it is you have asked for. Then . . . do the smart thing. Detach yourself. Turn your back and let the Universe take over."
-- Thomas L. Pauley and Penelope J. Pauley

-- Ian McEwan
"Generosity lies less in giving much than in giving at the right moment."
-- Jean De La Bruyare
"Generosity is another quality which, like patience, letting go, non-judging, and trust, provides a solid foundation for mindfulness practice. You might experiment with using the cultivation of generosity as a vehicle for deep self-observation and inquiry as well as an exercise in giving."
-- Jon Kabat Zinn
