“Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.”
William Arthur Ward (1921-1994)
A Louisiana native, Ward was as near to a professional proverbian as one can find in American society. After a stint in the Philippines with the US Army, Ward was Assistant to the President of Texas Wesleyan University, founded by the Methodist Episcopal Church. He headed a number of church groups during his active community life and wrote an inspirational column that appeared in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram for many years. Among the publications that featured his extraordinary output of quotable sayings were The Reader’s Digest, The Christian Advocate, and Science of the Mind magazine. Ward also served on the boards of the Rotary, the Red Cross, and the Boy Scouts of America.
