| The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other. |
| Christmas is the gentlest, loveliest festival of the revolving year - and yet, for all that, when it speaks, its voice has strong authority. |
| He who has not Christmas in his heart will never find it under a tree. |
| Christmas is a time when you get homesick - even when you're home. |
| Last Christmas someone stole my present. I've spent this year living in the past. |
| There are some people who want to throw their arms round you just because it's Christmas, there are other people who want to strangle you just because its Christmas. |
| At Christmas play and make good cheer, For Christmas comes but once a year. |
| 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. |
| A lovely thing about Christmas is that it's compulsory, like a thunderstorm, and we all go through it together. |
| A Christmas candle is a lovely thing; It makes no noise at all, But softly gives itself away; While quite unselfish, it grows small. |
