Quote by Thomas Fuller

A gift, with a kind countenance, is a double present.

A gift, with a kind countenance, is a double present.

Summary

This quote suggests that when someone gives a gift, it is not just the physical item that counts, but also the manner in which it is given. A kind and friendly attitude while presenting a gift adds an extra value to the gesture. It implies that the personal touch and genuine warmth bestowed upon the recipient alongside the gift make it more meaningful and appreciated. Therefore, a gift with a kind countenance is considered a double present, as it includes both the tangible item and the intangible sentiment behind it.
