The excellence of a gift lies in its appropriateness rather than in its value
The principal value of a garden is not understood. It is not to give the possessors vegetables and fruit (that can be better and cheaper done by the market-gardeners), but to teach him patience and philosophy, and the higher virtues - hope deferred, and expectations blighted, leading directly to resignation, and sometimes to alienation.
There is no such thing as absolute value in this world. You can only estimate what a thing is worth to you.
The stranger who receives the rare gift of human kindness holds its value in his heart forever.
