Grateful Quotes (page 5)

Each narrow cell in which we dwell. Is a foul and dark latrine, And the fetid breath of living Death. Chokes up each grated screen, And all, but Lust, is turned to dust In Humanity's machine. Oscar Wilde
Our Job is not to make young women grateful. It is to make the ungrateful so they keep going. Gratitude never radicalized anybody Susan B. Anthony
There was a discordant hum of human voices! There was a loud blast as of many trumpets! There was a harsh grating as of a thousand thunders! The fiery walls rushed back! An outstretched arm caught my own as I fell, fainting, into the abyss. It was that of General Lasalle. The French army had entered Toledo. The Inquisition was in the hands of its enemies. Edgar Allan Poe
I'm not insecure. I've been through way too much f**king sh*t to be insecure. I've got huge balls. But I've been humbled. That makes you grateful for every day you have. Drew Barrymore
May you be for ever blessed for that moment of bliss and happiness which you gave to another lonely and grateful heart. Isn't such a moment sufficient for the whole of one's life? Fyodor Dostoevsky
Clive Barker quote: "Let the mad find wisdom in their madness for the sane, and let..."
Let the mad find wisdom in their madness for the sane, and let the sane be grateful. Clive Barker
But that doesn't mean to say, of course, there aren't occasions now and then - extremely desolate occasions - when you think to yourself: 'What a terrible mistake I've made with my life.' And you get to thinking about a different life, a better life you might have had. For instance, I get to thinking about a life I may have had with you, Mr. Stevens. And I suppose that's when I get angry about some trivial little thing and leave. But each time I do, I realize before long - my rightful place... Kazuo Ishiguro
The best part of a Mr. Goodbar is not the wrapper, is it? No, and the best part of a Coke is not the can. On those nights when you lie awake, either man or boy, wondering about yourself, peeling away one layer of oddness after another, you should remember and always be grateful that the woefully imperfect person that you are, with all your contradictions and unworthy desires, is not the best of you, any more than the wrapper is the best part of a Mr. Goodbar. -Odd Thomas - Odd Apocalypse by... Dean Koontz
Few things are more agreeable than the spectacle of a man who loses his temper; we should be grateful to such people for providing us with moments of often unsullied delight. Harold Nicolson
John Wooden quote: "Talent is God-given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be..."
Talent is God-given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful. John Wooden
Alphonse Karr quote: "Some people grumble that Roses have thorns; I'm grateful that..."
Some people grumble that Roses have thorns; I'm grateful that thorns have roses. Alphonse Karr
To let God make us, instead of painfully trying to make ourselves; to follow the path that his love shows us, instead of through conceit or cowardice or mockery choosing another; to trust Him for our strength and fitness as the flowers do, simply giving ourselves back to Him in grateful service,—this is to keep the laws that give us the freedom of the city in which there is no longer any night of bewilderment or ignorance or uncertainty. Sarah Orne Jewett
Diane Keaton quote: "That's what I learned. I learned I couldn't shed light on love..."
That's what I learned. I learned I couldn't shed light on love other than to feel its comings and goings and be grateful. Diane Keaton
Thou that hast given so much to me give me one thing more, a grateful heart: not thankful when it pleaseth me, as if Thy blessings had spare days, but such a heart whose pulse may be Thy praise. George Herbert
Cambridge exceeded our most macabre expectations ... the arm-chairs, the crumpets, the beautifully-bound eighteenth century volumes, the fires roaring in stoked grates. Each of us had the loan of an absent undergraduate's rooms - bedroom, sitting-room and pantry; all fitted up in a style which, after the spartan simplicity of a public school study, seemed positively sinful. Christopher Isherwood
