"Much corporate giving is charitable in nature rather than philanthropic." ― David Rockefeller Topic(s): Nature More From David Rockefeller "I owe much to mother. She had an expert’s understanding, but also approached art emotionally." "I learned more from my mother than from all the art historians and curators who have informed me about technical aspects of art history and art appreciation over the years." "I am convinced that material things can contribute a lot to making one’s life pleasant, but, basically, if you do not have very good friends and relatives who matter to you, life will be really empty and sad and material things cease to be important."

It is frequently in the nature of a warm personal gesture by the individual to himself."― John Kenneth Galbraith "I mean, music totally comes from your soul."― Martin Scorsese "Mere goodness can achieve little against the power of nature."― Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
