Famous Thank You Quotes, Prized Infamy
In 2010, the Academy Awards producers told nominees that they would be required to limit their acceptance speeches to 45 seconds or less.
Their televised speeches should tell the audience why the Oscar is important to them.
Their thank-yous to parents, spouses, friends, cousins, God, neighbors, pets, espresso, psychotherapists, cellulite creams, and hair replacement therapists would have to wait for the Thank You Cam, housed backstage.

Hopefully, it will equate to concentrated famous thank you quotations that are packed with 45 seconds' worth of sentiment, hilarity, and all-around gratitude (you know, more content for this page).
Famous Thank You Quotes' Words
Often, famous thank you quotations are famous for the words that they contain: like, "I thank you from the bottom of my heart," or even the words, "Thank you." When we're at losses for words, these staples of our language come through with tried-and-true expressions of gratitude.When Sally Field accepted her Oscar and coined one of the most famous thank you quotes ever, with a speech that ended, "...I can't deny the fact that you like me, right now, you like me!" she cemented the sentiments of many other artists: they are famous because of those who adore them. Without their fans, they wouldn't be fondling the tall, thin, naked gold man; or the golden gramophone, or a depiction of the golden Earth.
When a celebrity or other famous person coins a famous thank you quote, the words make little heroes of the thanked, become ingrained the minds of fans and critics, and capture the intentions of others who may never get the chance to speak in front of millions. And for these famous thank you quotes, we say, "Thank you."
