“Gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder.”

“I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought; and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder.”

“I do not, in my private capacity, believe that a baby gets his best physical food by sucking his thumb; nor that a man gets his best moral food by sucking on his soul, and denying its dependence on God or other good things. I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought; and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder.”

“Because gratitude is the key to happiness, anything that undermines gratitude must undermine happiness. And nothing undermines gratitude as much as expectations. There is an inverse relationship between expectations and gratitude: The more expectations you have, the less gratitude you will have.”

“Happiness is in contentment, gratitude, and love. It is a lifestyle, not a location.”

“If you want to find happiness, find gratitude.”
