Alms Season

Famous quotes containing the words alms and/or season:

    If alms were only given out of pity, all the beggars would have starved to death.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    I like to compare the holiday season with the way a child listens to a favorite story. The pleasure is in the familiar way the story begins, the anticipation of familiar turns it takes, the familiar moments of suspense, and the familiar climax and ending.
    Fred Rogers (20th century)
