Cicero on Thanksgiving

2 comments

When we think of Thanksgiving, we probably don’t think of Cicero, Roman statesman, lawyer and philosopher. But Cicero had a way with words, and he said something that’s appropriate for a Thanksgiving quote, because his words give thankfulness the kind of expanded meaning it’s due.

“A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all the other virtues.”

  1. Hey , it’s Thanksgiving Day! I’m enjoying my extra day off, and I am planning to make something fun that’ll probably involve a car trip and seeing something new in Oakbrook I haven’t seen yet.
    You write something new at Thanksgiving?

  2. John Phillips says:

    Yes, something new every Thanksgiving — or, at least, I try to. Have a good day after.
