I wouldn't be able to write a song like 'Someone Like You' and get someone else to sing it because it's so personal. It's like giving away your heart.
- Adele
Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
I refuse to say this. If it means I will have to forgive Mrs. Smeath or else go to Hell when I die, I'm ready to go. Jesus must have known how hard it is to forgive, that was why he put this in. He was always putting in things that were impossible to do really, such as giving away all your money.
- Margaret Atwood
People are very fond of giving away what they need most themselves.
- Oscar Wilde
Lord Henry smiled. People are very fond of giving away what they need most themselves. It is what I call the depth of generosity.
- Oscar Wilde
Ah! realize your youth while you have it. Don't squander the gold of your days, listening to the tedious, trying to improve the hopeless failure, or giving away your life to the ignorant, the common, and the vulgar. These are the sickly aims, the false ideals, of our age. Live! Live the wonderful life that is in you! Let nothing be lost upon you. Be always searching for new sensations. Be afraid of nothing.
- Oscar Wilde

- Oscar Wilde
Acting is a matter of giving away secrets.
- Ellen Barkin
The man who leaves money to charity in his will is only giving away what no longer belongs to him
- Voltaire
I trust it will not be giving away professional secrets to say that many readers would be surprised, perhaps shocked, at the questions which some newspaper editors will put to a defenseless woman under the guise of flattery.
- Kate Chopin
And I don't think I'm giving away any secrets here, but there are a lot of terrible scripts in this town.
- Frank Darabont
I turned down a movie this summer because it was nine weeks in Vancouver and my oldest daughter is 14. I've got four more summers with her. I'm not giving away nine weeks of her summer to go do a silly movie.
- Jeff Foxworthy
We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread. They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof that everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms -- to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way.
- Viktor E Frankl
its difficult to dislike a man who takes pleasure in giving away free beer.
- Kevin Hearne
If any female feels she need anything beyond herself to legitimate and validate her existence, she is already giving away her power to be self-defining, her agency.
- Bell Hooks
My work is worth paying for only if your conscience feels guilty after stealing. Instead of asking what makes my work worth paying for, I prefer to ask: What makes my work worth stealing? The answer is I'm not sure, but I try to dissuade people from stealing the best way I know howby giving away all my goods for free. And my goods are good.
- Jarod Kintz
I think most Americans believe that although it's better not to use military force if you can avoid it, that the world simply doesn't provide us the luxury of giving away military force as an important tool of foreign policy.
- Robert Kagan
But now I feel off the grid. I feel that I am not part of the culture. And because I don't have a car I don't really go anywhere to buy things. In fact, I have been in a slow process of selling and giving away everything I own.
- Vincent Kartheiser
When you look at Regis, he really and truly does feel for those people, and I feel like I've done it too. You're giving away somebody else's money so what do you care? It's not your money.
- Wink Martindale
When you allow a person's words to upset you, you're giving away your power.
- Phillip C Mcgraw
Only a monopolist could study a business and ruin it by giving away products.
- Scott Mcnealy
I'm always horrified whenever I finish anything. Horrified and desolate. My instinct for perfection should inhibit me from ever finishing anything; it should in fact inhibit me from ever beginning. But I become distracted and do things. My accomplishments are not the product of my applied will but a giving away of my will. I begin because I don't have the strength to think; I finish because I don't have soul enough to stop things. This book is my cowardice.
- Fernando Pessoa
That's it for me. I'm fucked. As per usual. Always the bridesmaid, never the bride. Although come to think of it I was never even the freaking bridesmaid. Look, show your cock. It's the shortest line between two points. The world ain't giving away nice lives. You got a trust fund? You a genius? Show your cock. It's what you got.
- George Saunders
