- Sally: I'm addressing Christmas cards. Aren't they cute? Each one has a little bunny on it dressed up like a shepherd. Don't say I'm not religious!
- Jezebel: Today my name is Jezebel.
- Linus Van Pelt: Jezebel was the evil wife of King Ahab in the Old Testament. In II Kings, it says that her servants threw her out the window, and she landed on her head.
- Jezebel: Today my name is Susan.
- Sally: What's going on? Is my sweet babboo helping my brother write a Christmas card?
- Linus Van Pelt: I'm not your sweet babboo! That is so stupid! That is so humongously stupid!
- Charlie Brown: There, how does it look? I drew a Christmas tree with little hearts on it.
- Linus Van Pelt: [Reads card] "Merry Christmas from your sweet babboo"?
- Charlie Brown: It's a family expression.
- Linus Van Pelt: Dear, Santa Claus. How have you been? How is your wife? I am not sure what I want for Christmas this year. Sometimes it is very hard to decide. Perhaps you should send me your catalog.
- Rerun: So, Mr. Fancy Claus, remember me? My name is Rerun. What happened to all the things you were going to bring me for Christmas last year? Kind of forgot, didn't you, huh? I don't suppose you'd care to explain, would you, huh?
- Lucy Van Pelt: You have to give me a Christmas present. It says so in the Bible.
- Linus Van Pelt: You're bluffing. The Bible says nothing about giving Christmas presents.
- Lucy Van Pelt: It doesn't?
- Linus Van Pelt: You can't bluff an old theologian.
- Sally: I'm going out to fall down a Christmas tree.
- Charlie Brown: You mean cut down.
- Sally: I don't know how to cut down a Christmas tree. When I look at it, I hope that it just falls down.
- Lucy Van Pelt: You know why I don't want you to get me anything for Christmas? Because I know you hate me.
- Schroeder: I never said I hated you.
- Lucy Van Pelt: [shouting] Then buy me something!
- Lucy Van Pelt: One of your Christmas cards came back. It says, "No such address".
- Linus Van Pelt: It's that girl from class. Ooh, she drives me crazy!
- Lucy Van Pelt: Why do you even bother?
- Linus Van Pelt: She fascinates me.
- Charlie Brown: Grandma says that when she was a little girl, she used to hang her stockings on the fireplace, and when she woke up Christmas morning, they were filled with apples and oranges and such.
- Sally: [Goes to her dresser and takes out one of her small socks] I can see it now. Three grapes.
- Sally: [to Charlie Brown] Wake up! Santa Claus came last night, and he didn't leave you anything! April Fools!
- Linus Van Pelt: Dear Santa Claus. How are all your reindeer? Are they well fed? Is your sleigh in good shape? Are the runners oiled? Then go, man, GO!
- Lucy Van Pelt: [yuletide greetings] Dear Santa Claus, just a little note before you take off. I always worry about you. I hope you are in good health. Please drive carefully. Have a good trip.
- [signature]
- Lucy Van Pelt: Affectionately yours, Lucy Van Pelt /your friend/
- [P.S]
- Lucy Van Pelt: Merry Christmas. LUCY /your very good friend/
- [P.P.S]
- Lucy Van Pelt: XXXXXXXXX <-- KISSES
- Linus Van Pelt: [yuletide greetings #1] Dear Santa Claus, how have you been? Please don't get the idea that I am writing because I want something. Nothing could be further from the truth. I want nothing. Spend your time elsewhere. Don't bother with me. I really mean it. If yo want to skip our house this year, go right ahead. I won't be offended. Really I won't.
- Lucy Van Pelt: What in a world kind of letter is this?
- Linus Van Pelt: I'm hoping that he'll find my attitude peculiarly refreshing.
- Lucy Van Pelt: [crumpled the paper and throws out] It's peculiar all right. Try again.
- Linus Van Pelt: [yuletide greetings #2] Dear Santa Claus, how are all your reindeer? Are they well fed? Is your sleigh in good shape? Are the runners oiled? Then go, man... GO!
- [crumpled the paper and throws out]
- Linus Van Pelt: I don't think I'd better send that.
- Linus Van Pelt: [yuletide greetings #3] Dear Santa Claus, how have you been? How is your wife? I am not sure what I want for Christmas this year. Sometimes it is very hard to decide.
- [pause to think over]
- Linus Van Pelt: Perhaps you should send me your catalogue.
- Sally: [starts a yuletide greetings] "Dear Samantha Claus, How have you been?"
- Charlie Brown: Samantha Claus?
- Sally: She's the fat lady with the reindeer who brings us Christmas presents.
- Charlie Brown: With the red suit and the white beard?
- Sally: The white beard is just sort of a disguise.
