Spiritual Quote of the Day (Dietrich Bonhoeffer, on Gratitude and the Richness of Life)

"In ordinary life we hardly realize that we receive a great deal more than we give, and that it is only with gratitude that life becomes rich. It is very easy to overestimate the importance of our own achievements in comparison with what we owe others."—German Lutheran theologian and anti-Nazi activist Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945), Letters and Papers from Prison: The Enlarged Edition, edited by Eberhard Bethge (1997)
