Thanksgiving is the holiday of peace, the celebration of work and the simple life… a true folk-festival that speaks the poetry of the turn of the seasons, the beauty of seedtime and harvest, the ripe product of the year — and the deep, deep connection of all these things with God. – Ray Stannard Baker (David Grayson)

Thanksgiving is nothing if not a glad and reverent lifting of the heart to God in honor and praise for His goodness. – Robert Casper Lintner

A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all the other virtues. – Cicero

Give thanks for unknown blessings already on their way. – Native American Saying
