    Christmas Quotes

    Let us remember that the Christmas heart is a giving heart, a wide open heart that
    thinks of others first. The birth of the baby Jesus stands as the most significant
    event in all history, because it has meant the pouring into a sick world of the
    healing medicine of love which has transformed all manner of hearts for almost
    two thousand years... Underneath all the bulging bundles is this beating Christmas
    heart.
    -George Mathhew Adams

    There is no ideal Christmas; only the one Christmas you decide to make as a
    reflection of your values, desires, affections, traditions.
    -Bill McKibben, Author, Hundred Dollar Holiday: The Case For a More Joyful
    Christmas

    Time was with most of us, when Christmas Day, encircling all our limited world
    like a magic ring, left nothing out for us to miss or seek; bound together all our
    home enjoyments, affections, and hopes; grouped everything and everyone round
    the Christmas fire, and make the little picture shining in our bright young eyes,
    complete.
    -Charles Dickens

    What is Christmas? It is tenderness for the past, courage for the present, hope for
    the future. It is a fervent wish that every cup may overflow with blessings rich and
    eternal, and that every path may lead to peace.
    -Agnes M. Pharo

    Are you willing to believe that love is the strongest thing in the world - stronger
    than hate, stronger than evil, stronger than death - and that the blessed life which
    began in Bethlehem nineteen hundred years ago is the image and brightness of the
    Eternal Love? Then you can keep Christmas.

    -Henry Van Dyke


    It comes every year and will go on forever. And along with Christmas belong the
    keepsakes and the customs. Those humble, everyday things a mother clings to, and
    ponders, like Mary in the secret spaces of her heart.

    -Marjorie Holmes

    The joy of brightening other lives, bearing each others' burdens, easing other's
    loads and supplanting empty hearts and lives with generous gifts becomes for us
    the magic of Christmas.
    -W. C. Jones

    The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all
    wrapped up in each other.

    -Burton Hillis (Better Homes and Gardens)

    Whatever else be lost among the years, Let us keep Christmas still a shining thing:
    Whatever doubts assail us, or what fears, Let us hold close one day, remembering
    Its poignant meaning for the hearts of men. Let us get back our childlike faith
    again.

    -Grace Noll Crowell

    Christmas! The very word brings joy to our hearts. No matter how we may dread
    the rush, the long Christmas lists for gifts and cards to be bought and given--when
    Christmas Day comes there is still the same warm feeling we had as children, the
    same warmth that enfolds our hearts and our homes.

    -Joan Winmill Brown

    Peace on earth will come to stay, When we live Christmas every day.
    -Helen Steiner Rice
    Christmas ... is not an eternal event at all, but a piece of one's home that one carries
    in one's heart.

    -Freya Stark ("The Wise Men" Time and Tide)

    From Home to home, and heart to heart, from one place to another. The warmth
    and joy of Christmas, brings us closer to each other.
    -Emily Matthews

    Until one feels the spirit of Christmas, there is no Christmas. All else is outward
    display--so much tinsel and decorations. For it isn't the holly, it isn't the snow. It
    isn't the tree not the firelight's glow. It's the warmth that comes to the hearts of men
    when the Christmas spirit returns again.
    -Unknown

    Bless us Lord, this Christmas, with quietness of mind; Teach us to be patient and
    always to be kind.

    -Helen Steiner Rice

    Christmas--that magic blanket that wraps itself about us, that something so
    intangible that it is like a fragrance. It may weave a spell of nostalgia. Christmas
    may be a day of feasting, or of prayer, but always it will be a day of
    remembrance--a day in which we think of everything we have ever loved.

    -Augusta E. Rundel

    He who has no Christmas in his heart will never find Christmas under a tree.
    -Sunshine Magazine
    The rooms were very still while the pages were softly turned and the winter
    sunshine crept in to touch the bright heads and serious faces with a Christmas
    greeting.

    -Louisa May Alcott
