Basil Carpenter on Thanksgiving
Thank God every day when you get up that you have something to do that day which must be done whether you like it or not. Being forced to work and forced to do your best will breed in you temperance and self-control, diligence and strength of will, cheerfulness and content, and a hundred virtues which the idle will never know.
Henry Ward Beecher on Thanksgiving
The unthankful heart... discovers no mercies; but let the thankful heart sweep through the day and, as the magnet finds the iron, so it will find, in every hour, some heavenly blessings!
Irving Berlin on Thanksgiving
Got no check books, got no banks. Still I'd like to express my thanks - I got the sun in the mornin' and the moon at night.
