Generosity is nothing else than a craze to possess. All which I abandon, all which I give, I enjoy in a higher manner through the fact that I give it away. To give is to enjoy possessively the object which one gives.

  • -- Jean Paul Sartre 让·保罗·萨特

慷慨不过是一种占有欲。我放弃的所有东西,我给予的所有东西,我都以一种更高的方式享受,因为我把它给了别人。施予是对施予对象的占有。
