Christmas Quotes

Happy Holidays to all my devoted readers and fans. ;-)
Here are some thoughtful Christmas sentiments I wish to share with you on this special day.

May you have the gladness of Christmas which is hope; the spirit of Christmas which is peace; the heart of Christmas which is love.
~ Ada V. Hendricks

Christmas is the season for kindling the fire of hospitality in the hall, the genial flame of charity in the heart.
~ Washington Irving

Christmas is forever, not for just one day,
for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away
like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf.
The good you do for others is good you do yourself.
~ Norman W. Brooks, “Let Every Day Be Christmas"

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.
~ Calvin Coolidge

Christmas may be a day of feasting, or of prayer, but always it will be a day of remembrance-a day in which we think of everything we have ever loved.  
~ Augusta E. Rundel

Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love.  ~ Hamilton Wright Mabi

Let us keep Christmas beautiful
Without a thought of greed,
That it might live forevermore
To fill our every need,

That it shall not be just a day,
But last a lifetime through,
The miracle of Christmastime
That brings God close to you.
~ Garnett Ann Schultz
