But we hae meat, and we can eat,
Sae let the Lord be thankit.
~Robert Burns




















The Pilgrims made seven times more graves
than huts. No Americans have been more impoverished than these who, nevertheless, set aside a day of thanksgiving. ~H.U. Westermayer









Remember God's bounty in the year. String the pearls of His favor. Hide the dark parts, except so far as they are breaking out in light! Give this one day to thanks, to joy, to gratitude! ~Henry Ward Beecher
