Pure benevolence is an unrealistic
ideal. The act of giving yields pleasure to the giver in the form of
fulfilling a need to be seen to others or to himself as doing a good
deed. Philanthropy is a trophy given to those charitable persons. The
alabaster prism represents altruism embedded in the act of helping the
lesser.
