"Thanksgiving puts steel into our patriotic veins.
It reminds us or our great heritage.
It carries us back with numbing nostalgia
to that first dreadful winter at Plymouth where
less than half the handful of people survived.
It speaks in clear, crisp tones of forgotten terms, like: integrity...bravery...respect...faith...vigilance...
dignity...honor...freedom...discipline...sacrifice...godliness."
