The Christmas season has come to mean the period when the public plays Santa Claus to the merchants.



christmas quotes by SAMUEL JOHNSON-1448164111

The Church does not superstitiously observe days, merely as days, but as memorials of important facts. Christmas might be kept as well upon one day of the year as another; but there should be a stated day for commemorating the birth of our Saviour, because there is danger that what may be done on any day, will be neglected.

Christmas is the season when you buy this year's gifts with next year's money.



christmas quotes by EDGAR GUEST-1448127608

At Christmas A man is at his finest towards the finish of the year; He is almost what he should be when the Christmas season's here; Then he's thinking more of others than he's thought the months before, And the laughter of his children is a joy worth toiling for. He is less a selfish creature than at any other time; When the Christmas spirit rules him he comes close to the sublime...

christmas quotes by MAY SARTON-1448112324

I can understand people simply fleeing the mountainous effort Christmas has become... but there are always a few saving graces and finally they make up for all the bother and distress.

christmas quotes by P.J. O'ROURKE-1448089452

christmas quotes by LENORA MATTINGLY WEBER-1448074256

A Christmas candle is a lovely thing;It makes no noise at all,But softly gives itself away.



christmas quotes by DAVID GRAYSON-1447868452

I sometimes think we expect too much of Christmas Day. We try to crowd into it the long arrears of kindliness and humanity of the whole year. As for me, I like to take my Christmas a little at a time, all through the year. And thus I drift along into the holidays - let them overtake me unexpectedly - waking up some find morning and suddenly saying to myself: "Why, this is Christmas Day!"

christmas quotes by DAVE BARRY-1447864840

christmas quotes by RICHARD LAMM-1447757083

christmas quotes by FRANCIS C. FARLEY-1447731874

Instead of being a time of unusual behavior, Christmas is perhaps the only time in the year when people can obey their natural impulses and express their true sentiments without feeling self-conscious and, perhaps, foolish. Christmas, in short, is about the only chance a man has to be himself.

christmas quotes by CHARLES DICKENS-1447601776

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.
