Thanks Quotes

Words that trace success back to who helped along the way.

Gratitude in this collection is specific rather than vague: a basketball-coach father credited for early fundamentals, an unexpected path through the military that opened the door to art, and a simple thank-you offered for kind words about one's playing. For more on connection, see Connection.
