Harsh.

The bread that you do not use is the bread of the hungry.
The garment hanging in your closet is the garment of him who is naked.
The shoes that you do not wear are the shoes of one who is barefoot.
The money you keep locked away is the money of the poor.
The acts of charity you do not perform are so many acts of injustice you commit.
-St. Basil the Great
