Chesterton was a brilliant man. He had no college degree, but was known as a brilliant orator. When he came to town, the halls were packed. Everyone wanted to hear what he had to say. He spoke many eloquent words on gratitude.
I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought, and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder. –Gilbert K. Chesterton
There is no such thing on earth as an uninteresting subject; the only thing that can exist is an uninterested person. –G. K. Chesterton
The aim of life is appreciation; there is no sense in not appreciating things; and there is no sense in having more of them if you have less appreciation of them. –Gilbert K. Chesterton
When it comes to life the critical thing is whether you take things for granted or take them with gratitude. –G. K. Chesterton
When we were children we were grateful to those who filled our stockings at Christmas time. Why are we not grateful to God for filling our stockings with legs? ~G.K. Chesterton
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
