Just A Few Christmas Words


Christmas waves a magic wand over this world,and behold,
everything is softer and more beautiful.
~Norman Vincent Peale

Christmas is a time when you get homesick - even when you're home.
~Carol Nelson

He who has not Christmas in his heart will never find it under a tree.
~Roy L. Smith

I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round, as a good time;
a kind, forgiving, charitable time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely,
and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow passengers to the grave,
and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys.
~Charles Dickens

There has been only one Christmas - the rest are anniversaries.
~W.J. Cameron

Christmas is a necessity. There has to be at least one day of the year to remind us
that we're here for something else besides ourselves.
~Eric Sevareid

I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year.
~Charles Dickens

Gifts of time and love are surely the basic ingredients of a truly merry Christmas.
~Peg Bracken

At Christmas, all roads lead home.
~Marjorie Holmes

It is Christmas in the heart that puts Christmas in the air.
~W.T. Ellis

I wish we could put up some of the Christmas spirit in jars and open a jar of it every month. ~Harlan Miller

This is the message of Christmas: We are never alone.
~Taylor Caldwell

Christmas is a time to open our hearts to God and his gifts. Just like the rest of the year. ~Author Unknown

Christmas gift suggestions: To your enemy, forgiveness. To an opponent, tolerance.
To a friend, your heart. To a customer, service. To all, charity.
To every child, a good example. To yourself, respect.
~Oren Arnold
