Will Rogers
Thanksgiving Day
November 28, 1934
“In the days of its founders they were willing to give thanks for mighty little (for mighty little was all they expected). But now neither government or nature can give enough but what we think it’s too little.
Those old boys in the Fall of the year, if they could gather in a few pumpkins, potatoes and some corn for the winter, they was in a thanking mood.
But if we can’t gather in a new Buick, a new radio, a tuxedo and some government relief, why we feel like the world is agin us.”
Will Rogers (1879–1935) was a famous American humorist, vaudeville performer, actor. By the 1920s and 1930s, Rogers was a national star in both film and radio. He wrote over 4,000 syndicated newspaper columns making him a leading political pundit of his era.
