Thanksgiving Quotes

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)

Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving. ~W.T. Purkiser

For hearts that are kindly, with virtue and peace,
And not seeking blindly a hoard to increase;
For those who are grieving o'er life's sordid plan;
For souls still believing in heaven and man;
For homes that are lowly with love at the board;
For things that are holy, I thank thee, O Lord!
~Walt Mason

But whether we have less or more,
Always thank we God therefore.
~Author Unknown

But see, in our open clearings, how golden the melons lie;
Enrich them with sweets and spices, and give us the pumpkin-pie!
~Margaret Junkin Preston

Grace isn't a little prayer you chant before receiving a meal.
It's a way to live.
~Jackie Windspear

Forever on Thanksgiving Day
The heart will find the pathway home.
~Wilbur D. Nesbit
