My whole problem is that all of my favorite things at Thanksgiving are the starches and everyone is trying to go low-carb this year even a green vegetable has carbs in it.

A lot of Thanksgiving days have been ruined by not carving the turkey in the kitchen.

Pride slays thanksgiving but a humble mind is the soil out of which thanks naturally grow. A proud man is seldom a grateful man for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves.

If you think Independence Day is America's defining holiday think again. Thanksgiving deserves that title hands-down.

My cooking is so bad my kids thought Thanksgiving was to commemorate Pearl Harbor.

There is one day that is ours. Thanksgiving Day is the one day that is purely American.

To give thanks in solitude is enough. Thanksgiving has wings and goes where it must go. Your prayer knows much more about it than you do.

Thanksgiving dinners take eighteen hours to prepare. They are consumed in twelve minutes. Half-times take twelve minutes. This is not coincidence.

I celebrated Thanksgiving in an old-fashioned way. I invited everyone in my neighborhood to my house we had an enormous feast and then I killed them and took their land.

The upheavals of adolescence silenced 'A Christmas Carol' for a few years. I became a firebrand atheist. Christmas - humbug! Too commercial! Then I became an agnostic. Christmas was a pro-forma affair basically a chore. Buy mother a book dad a new tie my brother and sister small gifts. Pretend thanks for the fountain pens and shirts I received.

My fondest memories are generally the day after Thanksgiving. I get the total decorating Christmas itch.

Christmas is the antithesis of Thanksgiving. Christmas is pretty much a man-made holiday.

I love Halloween trick or treating and decorating the house. And I love Thanksgiving because of the football and the fall weather. And of course I love Christmas - that's my favorite of all!

Black Friday is not another bad hair day in Wall Street. It's the term used by American retailers to describe the day after the Thanksgiving Holiday seen as the semi-official start of Christmas shopping season.

Even though we're a week and a half away from Thanksgiving it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.

My wife whenever I'd go off to work and I'd be kind of anxious she'll say 'Remember have fun.' Oh I forgot thanks for the reminder. Because sometimes we do forget. We take it all too seriously and there's a lot of joy to be had wherever you are.

I give thanks everyday that I've been able to take my craziness and make it work for me.

The truth is the Super Bowl long ago became more than just a football game. It's part of our culture like turkey at Thanksgiving and lights at Christmas and like those holidays beyond their meaning a factor in our economy.

I have gotten to travel the world and experience all these incredible things thanks to my career.

The act is unjustifiable that either begs for a blessing or having succeeded gives no thanksgiving.

Let a nation's fervent thanks make some amends for the toils and sufferings of those who survive.

Should it happen tomorrow I would fall to my knees to give thanks to God for such a career.

The first thing I do when I start my day is I get down on my hands and knees and give thanks to God. Whenever I go outside of my house the first thing I do is stop at the church.

I don't need a holiday or a feast to feel grateful for my children the sun the moon the roof over my head music and laughter but I like to take this time to take the path of thanks less traveled.
