O Lord, that lends me life, lend me a heart replete with thankfulness!
Now, God be praised: that to believing souls gives light in darkness, comfort in despair!
To the kind of men who seek power, gratitude has very poor keeping qualities.
Time erodes gratitude more quickly than it does beauty.
The man who forgets to be grateful has fallen asleep in life.
Maybe the only thing worse than having to give gratitude constantly is having to accept it.
Love casts out fear, and gratitude can conquer pride.
Let gratitude be the pillow upon which you kneel to say your nightly prayer. And let faith be the bridge you build to overcome evil and welcome good.
It is no tragedy to do ungrateful people favors, but it is unbearable to be indebted to a scoundrel.[Ce n’est pas un grand malheur d’obliger des ingrats, mais c’en est un insupportable d’être obligé à un malhonnête homme.]
In most men gratitude is only a secret longing for greater benefits.[La reconnaissance de la plupart des hommes n’est qu’une secrète envie de recevoir de plus grands bienfaits.]
I’d like to say “thank you” on behalf of the group and ourselves and I hope we passed the audition.
I like living. I have sometimes been wildly despairing, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.
