Generosity is to help a deserving person without his request, and if you help him after his request, then it is either out of self-respect or to avoid rebuke.

My friends, Dr. King realized that the only real wealth comes from helping others.
Generosity is a virtue for individuals, not Governments. When governments are generous it is with other people's money, other people's safety, other people's future.
You've been so kind and generous.I'm bound to thank you for it.
Be generous! Give to those whom you love; give to those who love you; give to the fortunate; give to the unfortunate; yes — give especially to those to whom you don’t want to give.
Your most precious, valued possessions and your greatest powers are invisible and intangible. No one can take them. You, and you alone, can give them. You will receive abundance for your giving. The more you give — the more you will have!
I wonder if those who advocate generosity for its rewards notice the inconsistency, or if what they call generosity is an attractive investment strategy.
He who gives only what he would as readily throw away gives without generosity; for the essence of generosity is in self-sacrifice.
When you give, therefore, take to yourself no credit for generosity, unless you deny yourself something in order that you may give.
