 1   I,  13|            is indicated also by the giving of advice and by all reproof
 2  II,  7 |         insensible".~With regard to giving and taking of money the
 3  II,  7 |        spending. (At present we are giving a mere outline or summary,
 4  II,  7 |            one kind is exhibited in giving amusement, the other in
 5  II,  7 |       regard to pleasantness in the giving of amusement the intermediate
 6  IV,  1 |              but with regard to the giving and taking of wealth, and
 7  IV,  1 |            especially in respect of giving. Now by "wealth" we mean
 8  IV,  1 |       liberal man. Now spending and giving seem to be the using of
 9  IV,  1 |             is not hard to see that giving implies doing good and doing
10  IV,  1 |           and this depends on their giving.~Now virtuous actions are
11  IV,  1 | qualifications that accompany right giving; and that too with pleasure
12  IV,  1 |            And he will refrain from giving to anybody and everybody,
13  IV,  1 |             also to go to excess in giving, so that he leaves too little
14  IV,  1 |        taking or at keeping, but at giving away, and does not value
15  IV,  1 |          own sake but as a means to giving. Hence comes the charge
16  IV,  1 |         being a mean with regard to giving and taking of wealth, the
17  IV,  1 |           taking accompanies proper giving, and that which is not of
18  IV,  1 |             it, and accordingly the giving and taking that accompany
19  IV,  1 | deficiencies, and in two things, in giving and in taking; for we include
20  IV,  1 |           we include spending under giving. Now prodigality exceeds
21  IV,  1 |          Now prodigality exceeds in giving and not taking, while meanness
22  IV,  1 |             meanness falls short in giving, and exceeds in taking,
23  IV,  1 |        exhaust their substance with giving, and it is to these that
24  IV,  1 |      ignoble man to go to excess in giving and not taking, but only
25  IV,  1 |           they have an appetite for giving, and they do not mind how
26  IV,  1 |            source. Hence also their giving is not liberal; for it is
27  IV,  1 |            of getting money than of giving. It also extends widely,
28  IV,  1 |           two things, deficiency in giving and excess in taking, and
29  IV,  1 |        taking, others fall short in giving. Those who are called by
30  IV,  1 |          stingy", all fall short in giving, but do not covet the possessions
31  IV,  1 |              to whom he ought to be giving. Both, then, since they
32  IV,  4 |          objects; as in getting and giving of wealth there is a mean
33  IV,  6 |           and care not a whit about giving pain are called churlish
34  IV,  6 |             that he will aim at not giving pain or at contributing
35  IV,  6 |            pleasure, and avoids the giving of pain, he will be guided
36  IV,  7 |             life those who make the giving of pleasure or pain their
37  IV,  8 |        well-bred man, or by his not giving pain, or even giving delight,
38  IV,  8 |            not giving pain, or even giving delight, to the hearer?
