时值感恩节来临之际，我们为您奉上不朽杰出人物的感恩节名言，这些感恩节名言因为给感恩节增光添彩而经久不衰。

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怜悯；让这个节日充满感恩的心，就像磁石找到铁一样，感恩的心也会收到上天的祝福。

——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

感恩节最美好的一点是把一切事物都定格在纯洁的心中，让每一次感动都变成感恩，每一次呼吸都变成赞歌。

——康拉德•冯•格斯纳

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

- William A. Ward

上帝每天给了你86400秒钟的时间当礼物。你可曾用过其中一秒钟说“谢谢”？

——威廉•A•沃德

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

如果我们能帮助我们的孩子和孙儿们从小学会感恩该多好啊。感恩打开许多扇大门。感恩改变孩子的性格。有充满愤恨的小孩，有消极的小孩，也有感恩的小孩。感恩的小孩愿意给予，他们散发出快乐的气息，让人们不由得想靠近。

——约翰•邓普顿爵士

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，传达出生命中的一切皆是纯洁礼物的真理。过去我总是把感激当作收到礼物时的自发反应，但现在我意识到感激还可以作为生命的教条。根据感激的教条，我本身和我所拥有的一切都是爱的礼物，值得欢喜庆祝的礼物。

——卢云神父
