"He said (clip, clip, clip), 'Well, if you want to practice generosity, you can start by giving your best friend some small thing that you are not attached to, like a penny. (Clip, clip, clip, clip.)

At last, when you can do all this with ease, give your greatest enemy something which you cherish dearly.'"
