"...you do not win the weak by sharing your wealth with them; it will but infect them with greed and resentment. You can win the weak only by sharing your pride, hope or hatred with them."

Wise words from Eric Hoffer.

As a wise old friend of mine used to say: "Why does he hate me -- I never gave him charity". When you give someone charity, you automatically set him inferior, and you disrespect him. He takes the charity, but he resents you for it.
