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

I hate cooking, so my only concern was fitting a turkey in it on Thanksgiving and I can. (when asks when she will use her newly purchased 1950s stove).

When I was a kid growing up and my dad owned the drug store, it stopped dead on Labor Day. That was it. People left, and you didn`t see them again until Memorial Day. There was no Columbus Day, no Thanksgiving, no New Year`s Day. There was none of that.

There is no racial or ethnic involvement in Thanksgiving, and people who may be very distant from the Christian system can see the beauty and the positive spirit that comes from the holiday.
John Clayton
Thanksgiving is a time when the world gets to see just how blessed and how workable the Christian system is. The emphasis is not on giving or buying, but on being thankful and expressing that appreciation to God and to one another.
John Clayton
On Thanksgiving I will stop to give thanks that my family is safe and healthy, especially because I realize that, following the tragedies of this year, it is all too real a possibility that they might not have been.
Bobby Jindal
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.
Ted Allen
It`s like being at the kids` table at Thanksgiving - you can put your elbows on it, you don`t have to talk politics... no matter how old I get, there`s always a part of me that`s sitting there.
John Hughes
It`s better to pace yourself throughout a big day like Thanksgiving by having something healthful for breakfast and something light for lunch.
Marilu Henner
It`s a thanksgiving to God. It`s something I have wanted to do for a long time, but the record company wasn`t ready for it. So I did it myself.
Aaron Neville
I think that we can all go home until after Thanksgiving and we probably won`t have missed much. We are probably going to go sideways to downwards for the next week or so.
Robert Phillips
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.
Jon Stewart
From too much love of living, From hope and fear set free, We thank with brief thanksgiving Whatever gods may be That no life lives for ever; That dead men rise up never; That even the weariest river Winds somewhere safe to sea.
