No one is as capable of gratitude as one who has emerged from the kingdom of night. We know that every moment is a moment of grace, every hour an offering; not to share them would mean to betray them. Our lives no longer belong to us alone; they belong to all those who need us desperately.
For me, every hour is grace. And I feel gratitude in my heart each time I can meet someone and look at his or her smile.
When a person doesn't have gratitude, something is missing in his or her humanity.
Gratitude is a word that I cherish. Gratitude is what defines the happiness and humanity of the human being.
The knowledge that I have acquired must not remain imprisoned in my brain. I owe it to many men and women to do something with it. I feel the need to pay back what was given to me. Call it gratitude.
No one is as capable of gratitude as one who has escaped the kingdom of night.
