In all affairs it's a healthy thing now and then to hang a question mark on the things you have long taken for granted.
Bertrand Russell (1872-1970); Philosopher, Mathematician
無論對于什么事情，我們都應(yīng)該時(shí)常問問自己，那些我們長久以來想當(dāng)然的東西真的理所應(yīng)當(dāng)嗎。
We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have.
Fredrick Koeing
我們幾乎快要忘了，快樂并不在于得到了沒有的東西，而在于知道自己擁有什么，并心存感激。
Who will tell whether one happy moment of love or the joy of breathing or walking on a bright morning and smelling the fresh air, is not worth all the suffering and effort which life implies.
Erich Seligmann Fromm (1900-1980); Social Psychologist
誰能說，一個(gè)充滿愛的幸福時(shí)刻，或者在一個(gè)明媚的早晨散步、呼吸新鮮的空氣所獲得的快樂，就不值得用生命中的一切痛苦和努力去換取呢。
Reflect upon your present blessings, of which every man has plenty; not on your past misfortunes of which all men have some.
Charles Dickens (1812-1870); Novelist
思考當(dāng)下的福祉，而非過去的不幸。福祉，每個(gè)人都有很多;不幸，每個(gè)人都有一點(diǎn)。
◆ 感恩讓生活如此美好
To speak gratitude is courteous and pleasant, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live gratitude is to touch Heaven.
Johannes A. Gaertner (1912-1996); Art History Professor, Theologian, Poet
感恩于言是禮貌又令人愉悅的，感恩于行是慷慨又高尚的，而若能懷著一顆感之心去生活，那便是觸到了天堂。
I still miss those I loved who are no longer with me but I find I am grateful for having loved them. The gratitude has finally conquered the loss.
Rita Mae Brown (born 1944); Writer
我依然很想念那些我曾經(jīng)愛過但已不在身邊的人，但是我感謝命里愛過他們。感恩之心最終戰(zhàn)勝了喪失之痛。
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
在日常生活中，我們必須明白，我們不是因?yàn)榭鞓范卸�，而是因�(yàn)楦卸鞫鞓贰?/p>
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.
Melodie Beattie - Motivational Author
感恩，會(huì)為你開啟充實(shí)生活之門，使我們原本擁有的東西變得更多更充裕。它使抗拒變?yōu)榻邮�，紊亂變?yōu)橛行颍Щ笞優(yōu)槊魑�。它讓簡單的飯菜成為盛宴，一個(gè)房間成為家庭，一個(gè)陌生人成為朋友。感恩，賦予過去以意義，賦予當(dāng)下以平靜，賦予未來以憧憬。
◆ 別忘了說一句感謝
The deepest craving of human nature is the need to be appreciated.
William James (1842-1910); Psychologist, Philosopher, Author
人類本性中最深切的渴求就是被他人贊賞。
When eating bamboo sprouts, remember the man who planted them.
Chinese Proverb
喝水不忘挖井人。
If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough.
Meister Eckhart [Johannes Eckhart] (1260-1328); Theologian, Mystic
如果你一生中唯一說過的祈禱是“謝謝”，那已經(jīng)足夠。
Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.
