“We must find time to stop and thank the people who make a difference in our lives.”

― John F. Kennedy

“In the end, though, maybe we must all give up trying to pay back the people in this world who sustain our lives. In the end, maybe it's wiser to surrender before the miraculous scope of human generosity and to just keep saying thank you, forever and sincerely, for as long as we have voices.”

― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman's Search for Everything

“Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.”

― Marcel Proust

“Great things happen to those who don't stop believing, trying, learning, and being grateful.”

― Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart

“Cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you, and to give thanks continuously. And because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude.”

― Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.”

― Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose

“If the only prayer you said was thank you, that would be enough.”

― Meister Eckhart

“When it comes to life the critical thing is whether you take things for granted or take them with gratitude.”

― G.K. Chesterton

“Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all others.

― Marcus Tullius Cicero

“Dance. Smile. Giggle. Marvel. TRUST. HOPE. LOVE. WISH. BELIEVE. Most of all, enjoy every moment of the journey, and appreciate where you are at this moment instead of always focusing on how far you have to go.”

― Mandy Hale, The Single Woman: Life, Love, and a Dash of Sass

“As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.
[Thanksgiving Day Proclamation, 1963]”

― John F. Kennedy

“When you are grateful, fear disappears and abundance appears.”

― Anthony Robbins

“In normal life we hardly realize how much more we receive than we give, and life cannot be rich without such gratitude. It is so easy to overestimate the importance of our own achievements compared with what we owe to the help of others.”

― Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Letters and Papers from Prison

“And when you crush an apple with your teeth, say to it in your heart:

Your seeds shall live in my body,
And the buds of your tomorrow shall blossom in my heart,
And your fragrance shall be my breath,
And together we shall rejoice through all the seasons.”

“Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving.”

― W. T. Purkiser

“The most beautiful moments in life are moments when you are expressing your joy, not when you are seeking it.”

― Jaggi Vasudev
