"We can lift ourselves, and others as well, when we refuse to remain in the realm of negative thought and cultivate within our hearts an attitude of gratitude. If ingratitude be numbered among the serious sins. then gratitude takes its place among the noblest of virtues."
(An Attitude of Gratitude Pres. Thomas S. Monson, 2000 Feb Ensign.)
"A grateful heart is a beginning of greatness. It is an expression of humility. It is a foundation for the development of such virtues as prayer, faith courage, contentment, happiness, love and well-being." (Gratitude As a Saving Principle Pres. James E. Faust, 1996 Dec Ensign.)
"Think to Thank. In these 3 words is the finest capsule course for a happy marriage, a formula for enduring friendship, and a pattern for personal happiness" (Thomas S. Monson, Pathway to Perfection, 1973 p.254)
"Hold fast to the blessings which God has provided for you. Yours is not the task to gain them, they are here; yours is the part of cherishing them." (Pres. J. Rueben Clark, Church News, June 1969)
