Quotes on Gratitude

"Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather."
- John Ruskin

"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow."
- Melody Beattie

"Gratitude is when memory is stored in the heart and not in the mind."
- Sam N. Hampton

"In our daily lives, we must see that it is not happiness that makes us grateful, but the gratefulness that makes us happy. "
- Albert Clarke

"At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us."
- Albert Schweitzer

"As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them."
- John F. Kennedy

如果一个人能
为一个小小的幸运而心存感激;
为别人小小的付出而真诚感动;
为一个小小的拥有而感到满足;
为一个小小的幸运而洋溢着幸福,
那么,我们真的不需要什么就会很福足。
- 何权峰作品“就靠这一次,人生急转弯”
