Thoughts about expressing thankfulness

There is no such thing as gratitude unexpressed. If it is unexpressed, it is plain, old-fashioned ingratitude. ~Robert Brault

Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving. ~W.T. Purkiser


There is no greater difference between men than between grateful and ungrateful people. ~R.H. Blyth


When our perils are past, shall our gratitude sleep? ~George Canning


Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it. ~William Arthur Ward


The Pilgrims made seven times more graves than huts. No Americans have been more impoverished than these who, nevertheless, set aside a day of thanksgiving. ~H.U. Westermayer

"God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one to say "thank you?" ~William A. Ward


"Silent gratitude isn't of much use to anyone." G.B. Stern
