Ingratitude is sooner or later fatal to its author.

When you don't come from struggle, gaining appreciation is a quality that's difficult to come by.

I have yet to find a man, however exalted his station, who did not do better work and put forth greater effort under a spirit of approval than under a spirit of criticism.

A man, to carry on a successful business, must have imagination. He must see things as in a vision, a dream of the whole thing. A man can cultivate this faculty only by an appreciation for the finer things in life.

Silent gratitude isn't very much to anyone.

Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.

There are slavish souls who carry their appreciation of favors done them so far that they strangle themselves with the rope of gratitude.

Be present in all things and thankful for all things.

Hold every moment sacred. Give each clarity and meaning, each the weight of thine awareness, each its true and due fulfillment.

Your depression is connected to your insolence and refusal to praise.
