We have brought you some everlasting quotations by immortal personalities and eminent people who have glorified Thanksgiving through their elegiac composition:

時值感恩節來臨之際，我們為您奉上不朽杰出人物的感恩節名言，這些感恩節名言因為給感恩節增光添彩而經久不衰。

The unthankful heart... discovers no mercies; but let the thankful heart sweep through the day and, as the magnet finds the iron, so it will find, in every hour, some heavenly blessings!

-Henry Ward Beecher

不懂感恩的心得不到憐憫；讓這個節日充滿感恩的心，就像磁石找到鐵一樣，感恩的心也會收到上天的祝福。

——亨利?沃德?比奇

Best of all is it to preserve everything in a pure, still heart, and let there be for every pulse a thanksgiving, and for every breath a song.

- Konrad von Gesner

感恩節最美好的一點是把一切事物都定格在純潔的心中，讓每一次感動都變成感恩，每一次呼吸都變成贊歌。

——康拉德?馮?格斯納

God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one to say "thank you?"

- William A. Ward

上帝每天給了你86400秒鐘的時間當禮物。你可曾用過其中一秒鐘說“謝謝”？

——威廉?A?沃德

An optimist is a person who starts a new diet on Thanksgiving Day.

- Irv Kupcinet

一個樂觀主義者就是在感恩節開始嘗試一項新節食計劃的人。

——厄夫?庫普茨內特

How wonderful it would be if we could help our children and grandchildren to learn thanksgiving at an early age. Thanksgiving opens the doors. It changes a child's personality. A child is resentful, negative-or thankful. Thankful children want to give, they radiate happiness, they draw people.

- Sir John Templeton

如果我們能幫助我們的孩子和孫兒們從小學會感恩該多好啊。感恩打開許多扇大門。感恩改變孩子的性格。有充滿憤恨的小孩，有消極的小孩，也有感恩的小孩。感恩的小孩愿意給予，他們散發出快樂的氣息，讓人們不由得想靠近。

——約翰?鄧普頓爵士

Gratitude ... goes beyond the "mine" and "thine" and claims the truth that all of life is a pure gift. In the past I always thought of gratitude as a spontaneous response to the awareness of gifts received, but now I realize that gratitude can also be lived as a discipline. The discipline of gratitude is the explicit effort to acknowledge that all I am and have is given to me as a gift of love, a gift to be celebrated with joy.

- Henri J. M. Nouwen

感激超越你我，傳達出生命中的一切皆是純潔禮物的真理。過去我總是把感激當作收到禮物時的自發反應，但現在我意識到感激還可以作為生命的教條。根據感激的教條，我本身和我所擁有的一切都是愛的禮物，值得歡喜慶祝的禮物。

——盧云神父

Do not get tired of doing what is good. Don't get discouraged and give up, for we will reap a harvest of blessing at the appropriate time.

- Galatians 6:9

不要厭倦做好事。不要沮喪和放棄，因為終有一天我們會收獲許多祝福。

——（新約圣經中的）迦拉太書6:9

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.

- John Fitzgerald Kennedy

當我們表達自己的感激之情時，我們必須永遠銘記最大的感激不是言語能表達的，而是要常懷感恩之心。

——肯尼迪
