Noblesse Oblige

Wiki says, Noblesse Oblige literally means nobility obligates. The French Wiktionary says:
1.Whoever claims to be noble must conduct himself nobly. and
2. (Figuratively) One must act in a fashion that conforms with one’s position, and with the reputation that one has earned.

“Noblesse oblige” is generally used to imply that with wealth, power and prestige come responsibilities. The phrase is sometimes used derisively, in the sense of condescending or hypocritical social responsibility. In American English especially, the term has also been applied more broadly to those who are capable of simple acts to help another, usually one who is less fortunate.

Again, thank you Lynn. I’m now off to check out Christian books and videos that I will soon be purchasing to give as a gift to a friend.
