Prompt:

In “The Gift of the Magi” the author concludes the story by stating this:

“But in a last word to the wise of these days let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest. Of all who give and receive gifts, such as they are wisest. Everywhere they are the wisest. They are the magi.”

Answer 1

I like this a lot due to the fact of the statistics stated in such a clear regard!

Answer 2

I agree with the author's perspective in "The gift of the magi". The ability to give a gift itself without the expressed intent of receiving one back in a noble trait that not many people poses today. likewise with the ability to graciously receive a gift without greed or discontent in your heart is also a noble trait. I feel that the author is touching on something that is rare in our modern world & even sometimes looked down upon as "Poor" or "Needy". That is my personal view on this matter.
