“Perseverance and gratefulness makes hope closer to the blessing.”
“Count your blessings and be grateful not a great fool.”
“Perseverance is impossible if we don't permit ourselves to hope.”
“When we give cheerfully and accept gratefully, everyone is blessed.”
“Comparing [our] blessings [with others] is almost certain to drive out joy. We cannot be grateful and envious at the same time. If we truly want to have the Spirit of the Lord and experience joy and happiness, we should rejoice in our blessings and be grateful.”
“If you wish success in life, make perseverance your bosom friend, experience your wise counselor, caution your elder brother and hope your guardian genius.”
