Our many different cultures notwithstanding, there's something about the holidays that makes the planet communal. Even nations that do not celebrate Christmas can't help but be caught up in the collective spirit of their neighbors, as twinkling lights dot the landscape and carols fill the air. It's an inspiring time of the year.
Marlo Thomas
I think we've taken the meaning of Christmas out. People don't stop and think about Jesus or the birth of Jesus. When they think of Christmas, they think of Santa Claus and - for the children, and they think of giving gifts and out-giving the next person of spending their time looking for the right thing for somebody who has everything.
Billy Graham
How many observe Christ's birthday! How few, his precepts! O! 'tis easier to keep holidays than commandments.
Benjamin Franklin
I stone got crazy when I saw somebody run down them strings with a bottleneck. My eyes lit up like a Christmas tree and I said that I had to learn.
Muddy Waters
I put the copy of 'A Christmas Carol' that my grandfather had first read to me 60 years ago on my desk, and I began to write. The result, for better or for worse, is the 'Christmas Spirits.' I plan to read it to my grandson.
Whitley Strieber
Christmas for me is all about spending time with my family. I cherish any chance we have to spend all day together making gingerbread houses, baking cookies, or sitting around and watching movies.
Blake Lively
Making a Christmas album is looked upon by some people as the thing you do when you are heading towards retirement.
Annie Lennox
There are some people who want to throw their arms round you simply because it is Christmas there are other people who want to strangle you simply because it is Christmas.
Robert Staughton Lynd
Christmas is the antithesis of Thanksgiving. Christmas is pretty much a man-made holiday.
John Clayton
A merry Christmas to everybody! A happy New Year to all the world!
Charles Dickens
If you pray enough for things, I am proof that they can happen. I feel like a kid on Christmas day now, every day. It's something I have wanted for a long time and I am as happy as anyone to be here. It is great to be back at my first love.
Robbie Fowler
To understand this Christmas record, you have to understand our ministry.
John Tesh
Fantastic! Right in the middle of that long stretch between Christmas and Spring Break, your coats are getting dirty, everything's dark, dingy - what a great time for a movie!
John Hughes
Nothing says holidays, like a cheese log.
Ellen DeGeneres
God never gives someone a gift they are not capable of receiving. If he gives us the gift of Christmas, it is because we all have the ability to understand and receive it.
Pope Francis
And know that I am with you always; yes, to the end of time.
Jesus Christ
The smell of pine needles, spruce and the smell of a Christmas tree - those to me, are the scents of the holidays.
Happy, happy Christmas, that can win us back to the delusions of our childhood days, recall to the old man the pleasures of his youth, and transport the traveler back to his own fireside and quiet home!
For it is in giving that we receive.
Francis of Assisi
Christmas is doing a little something extra for someone.
