“Christmas is most truly Christmas when we celebrate it by giving the light of love to those who need it most.”

“Christmas is not a reminder that the world is really quite a nice old place. It reminds us that the world is a shockingly bad old place, where wickedness flourishes unchecked, where children are murdered, where civilized countries make a lot of money by selling weapons to uncivilized ones so they can blow each other apart. Christmas is God lighting a candle, and you don't light a candle in a room that's already full of sunlight. You light a candle in a room that's so murky that the candle, when lit, reveals just how bad things really are. The light shines in the darkness, says St. John, and the darkness has not overcome it.”

“Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas.”

“Christmas is not a time or a season but a state of mind.”

“Christmas is not in tinsel and lights and outward show. The secret lies in an inner glow. It's lighting a fire inside the heart. Good will and joy a vital part. It's higher thought and a greater plan. It's glorious dream in the soul of man.”

“Christmas is such a time of struggle anyway, crammed with busy and hurry and the expectation that you will be joyful, no matter what. Then, if you’re like me, when you just sit quietly, just be, and let yourself feel what you feel, the guilt creeps in. Because you’re alive and the world is big, and you should be feeling some freakin’ Christmas spirit.”

“Christmas is the day that holds all time together.”

“Christmas is the great leveler. For we might sit in lofty positions of prestige and power, or we might sit huddled in some back alley with nothing but a few scraps of food and a handful of tattered garments. We can steer nations or know nothing of nations or steering. We can possess the assorted holdings of a vast portfolio, or we can hold nothing but that which is in our hands. Despite our station in life, whether it be lofty or lowly, the need for salvation escapes none of us, is offered to all of us, and will determine the destiny of each of us.”

“Christmas is the perfect time to celebrate the love of God and family and to create memories that will last forever. Jesus is God's perfect, indescribable gift. The amazing thing is that not only are we able to receive this gift, but we are able to share it with others on Christmas and every other day of the year.”

“Christmas is the season of joy, of holiday greetings exchanged, of gift-giving,and of families united.”
