感恩是什么？
“gratitude is the inward feeling of kindness received. thankfulness is the natural impulse to express that feeling. thanksgiving is the following of that impulse.” — henry van dyke
"谢意是受到恩惠后的内心感觉，感恩是渴望表达这感觉的自然反应，感恩节就是为这反应要生的。”
“thankfulness is the beginning of gratitude. gratitude is the completion of thankfulness. thankfulness may consist merely of words. gratitude is shown in acts.” — henri frederic amiel
"感恩始于感谢之心，谢意正好完成了感恩。感恩也许只是一堆言语文字，感谢却要以行动去表逹。”
it isn’t what you have in your pocket that makes you thankful, but what you have in your heart.
令你感恩的，不是你口袋裡的，而是在你心中的。
为何要感恩？
“to educate yourself for the feeling of gratitude means to take nothing for granted, but to always seek out and value the kind that will stand behind the action. nothing that is done for you is a matter of course. everything originates in a will for the good, which is directed at you. train yourself never to put off the word or action for the expression of gratitude.” — albert schweitzer
"学习感恩即是要明白没有东西是理所当然的，经常寻求和重视行动的背后。没有东西是奉旨的，一切都源于为你好。必须训练自己不要延迟表达谢意。”
“to live a life of gratitude is to open our eyes to the countless ways in which we are supported by the world around us. such a life provides less space for our suffering because our attention is more balanced. we are more often occupied with noticing what we are given, thanking those who have helped us, and repaying the world in some concrete way for what we are receiving.” — gregg krech
"感恩之心有无数的方法打开我们的眼睛，让我们看清周围的世界是多麽支持我们的。感恩的生活容不下痛楚，因为我们的注意力会集中在我们所拥有的，感谢身边帮忙过我们的人，并以实际行动回馈。”
不懂感恩的后果？
“if a fellow isn’t thankful for what he’s got, he isn’t likely to be thankful for what he’s going to get.” — frank a. clark
"如果一个家伙不为所拥有的感恩，他不可能会为自己将来所拥有的感恩。”
“you won’t be happy with more until you’re happy with what you’ve got.” — viki king
"若你对现在拥有的不感到高兴，你将不会因为得到更多而感到快乐。”
不幸的人如何感恩？
“i thank god for my handicaps, for, through them, i have found myself, my work, and my god.” — helen keller
