"In per capita private charity, Americans give three and a half times as much as the French, seven times as much as the Germans, and 14 times as much as the Italians.

It is terrific that we have many generous and compassionate people. Regardless of the situation, these people are going to be generous and compassionate. There can never be too many of these people.
