White... is not a mere absence of colour;
it is a shining and affirmative thing,
as fierce as red, as definite as black...
God paints in many colours;
but He never paints so gorgeously,
I had almost said so gaudily,
as when He paints in white.

-G. K. Chesterton, Tremendous Trifles

Generosity

Generosity lies less in giving much
than in giving at the right moment.

-Jean De La Bruyere, Characters
