William Shakespeare
Henry VI
"A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all other virtues."
Cicero
"Pride slays thanksgiving, but an humble mind is the soil out of which thanks naturally grow. A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves."
Henry Ward Beecher
"The worship most acceptable to God comes from a thankful and cheerful heart."
Plutarch
"Thou has given me so much....Give me one thing more, a grateful heart."
George Herbert
"Be thankful for the smallest blessing, and you will receive greater. Value the least gifts no less than the greatest, and simple graces as especial favors. If you remember the dignity of the Giver, no gift will seem small or mean, for nothing can be valueless that is given by the most high God.
Thomas a Kempis
