• Is it easy to love God' asks an old author. 'It is easy,' he replies, 'to those who do it.' I have included two Graces under the word Charity. But God can give a third. He can awake in man, towards Himself, a supernatural Appreciative love. This is of all gifts the most to be desired. Here, not in our natural loves, nor even in ethics, lies the true centre of all human and angelic life. With this all things are possible.

• The question is grateful to who?  You would think grateful to Allah, but Allah didn’t mention Himself.  So it could be grateful to Allah, grateful to your parents, grateful to your teachers, grateful for your health, grateful to friends.  Grateful to anyone who’s done anything for you.  Grateful to your employer for giving you a job.  Appreciative.  Grateful is not just an act of saying Alhamdulilah.  Grateful is an attitude, it’s a lifestyle, it’s a way of thinking. You’re constantly grateful.

• Ahora, estoy tan agradecido como cualquier otro académico obsesivo-compulsivo en vías de recuperación por la enorme riqueza de material disponible en línea, gracias a todos esos escáneres de Google agazapados en los sótanos de las bibliotecas de todo el mundo, alimentando locamente los libros a través de sus máquinas.

• My name is Cassie Palmer and I’ve cheated death more times than anyone has a right to expect. In the last two months, I’ve been shot, stabbed, beaten and blown up a few dozen times, and that doesn’t count all the magical ways I’ve almost been killed. I’d have been dead a long time ago if not for my friends, one of whom had just jumped off the cliff after me. I’d have been a lot more appreciative if he hadn’t pushed me first.

• I am in fact a Hobbit in all but size. I like gardens, trees, and unmechanized farmlands; I smoke a pipe, and like good plain food (unrefrigerated), but detest French cooking; I like, and even dare to wear in these dull days, ornamental waistcoats. I am fond of mushrooms (out of a field); have a very simple sense of humor (which even my appreciative critics find tiresome); I go to bed late and get up late (when possible). I do not travel much.

• Hey, big spender,” I said. He looked appreciative but more amused than anything else. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a one dollar bill. “Hugh,” I said. “Don’t insult me.” With a sigh, he produced a five and tucked it underneath my bra strap. “Hey, Seth,” Cody suddenly said. I looked up and saw Seth standing in the doorway. A look of comic bemusement was on his face. “Hey,” he said, studying me. “So…you’re paying for dinner?

• There are many ways of writing badly about painting... There is an 'appreciative' language of threadbare, not inaccurate, but overexposed and irritating words... the language of the schools which 'situates' works and artists in schools and movements... novelists and poets [that] see paintings as allegories of writing.
