> 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
>Our hearts grow tender with childhood memories and love of kindred, and we are better throughout the year for having, in spirit, become a child again at Christmas-time. ~Laura Ingalls Wilder
> May Peace be your gift at Christmas and your blessing all year through!
~Author Unknown
> Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen.
> This is the message of Christmas: We are never alone. ~Taylor Caldwell
