fruitfully." -- Thomas B. Kempis
"It is well, when judging a friend, to remember that he is judging you with

"Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall
be judged...." -- Jesus Christ, The Holy Bible: King James Version, Matthew

To have feelings of thanksgiving and gratitude for blessings is one of the

our daily associations." --Ezra Taft Benson
"This is the finest measure of thanksgiving: a thankfulness that springs
from love." --William C. Skeath
