Edna Ferber, Roast Beef MediumChristmas isn't a season. It's a feeling.Bess Streeter Aldrich, Song of YearsChristmas Eve was a night of song that wrapped itself about you like a shawl. But it warmed more than your body. It warmed your heart... filled it, too, with melody that would last forever.Lenora Mattingly Weber, ExtensionChristmas is for children. But it is for grownups too.

BarnardThe perfect Christmas tree? All Christmas trees are perfect!Charles Dickens, A Christmas CarolBut I am sure that I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round... as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant 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.W.

Christmas means fellowship, feasting, giving and receiving, a time of good cheer, home.Mary Ellen ChaseChristmas, children, is not a date.

What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store? What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?G. K. ChestertonWhen we were children we were grateful to those who filled our stockings at Christmas time. Why are we not grateful to God for filling our stockings with legs?Dale EvansChristmas, my child, is love in action.Andy RooneyOne of the most glorious messes in the world is the mess created in the living room on Christmas day. Don't clean it up too quickly.Hugh DownsSomething about an old-fashioned Christmas is hard to forget.Freya StarkChristmas is not an eternal event at all, but a piece of one's home that one carries in one's heart.Marjorie HolmesAt Christmas, all roads lead home.
