“Christmas! The very word brings joy to our hearts.”

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

“Let us keep Christmas still a shining thing.”

“Moving between the legs of tables and of chairs, rising or falling, grasping at kisses and toys, advancing boldly, sudden to take alarm, retreating to the corner of arm and knee, eager to be reassured, taking pleasure in the fragrant brilliance of the Christmas tree.”
