We look to the turkey to participate in this great Thanksgiving Day that is a national holiday, when all of us should take time out to thank our Maker and our country for our lands and our families, the bounties and the blessings that are…

I hope that every family in this land will be able not only to enjoy a bountiful Thanksgiving, because we have so much to be thankful for, but that they will be able to enjoy some good turkey.

One thing that I think we must constantly be aware of is that no people anywhere during any period of history have ever had so much to be thankful for as we Americans.

There is no one in this Government who is going to carry any heavier responsibility than Gardner Ackley and the Council that he leads and over which he presides.

I can't be happy over Walter Heller's departure from Washington, leaving the Council, and at the same time I am very happy and, of course, couldn't be unhappy over the strength that he has left behind on this Council.

If we can do as well by the Nation as I believe we are doing by the Council, the country is in for the best times that we have ever had over the next several years.

I hardly know whether to scowl or to smile.

Our gains have been many, but we are not about to become satisfied with ourselves.

We can do what America needs done only if we can continue with this prosperous economy, and we just cannot have it continued by wanting it to continue.

Sunset and evening star, And one clear call for me! And may there be no moaning of the bar, When I put out to sea.

Now, Therefore, I, Lyndon B. Johnson,President of the United States of America, do hereby call upon the people of this Nation, and their local and national government officials, to observe Wright Brothers Day, December 17, 1964, with…

Mrs. Johnson and I want you to know how proud and how happy we are to have you in our home.

I pray that the mutual respect and friendship which is rooted deep in the conscience of both our countries will grow and endure.

Our border is long and it is friendly.

So, Mr. President, in all that you do and in all that I do we try to preserve the freedom of our people, to protect the treasures of our society, and to always enhance the dignity of our people.

Mexico and the United States share more than a common frontier.

My lady and I spent our honeymoon, we say to you today, mi casa es su casa.

We seek to give everyone an opportunity to achieve his highest aspirations.
