The quotation from Anne Frank is better than the quotation from Aristotle.

I think Anne Frank's quote is better to follow because it is simple and kind. It makes you want to help people without being scared you will lose something. Aristotle's quote is smart but confusing because it talks about hard choices and timing when giving money. For me, it's easier to remember that giving makes you richer inside and makes the world nicer.
