Christmas is a race to see which gives out first – your money or your feet.
- Unknown

I am not alone at all, I thought. I was never alone at all.
And that, of course, is the message of Christmas.
We are never aone. Not when the night is darkest, the wind coldest,
the word seemingly most indifferent.
For this is still the time God chooses.
- Taylor Caldwell

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
