With the Christmas season upon us, I thought I’d look at some Christmas quotes from notable figures.
- A thousand times in history a baby has become a king, but only once in history did a King become a baby. Anon
- Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before! What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store. What if Christmas…perhaps…means a little bit more! Dr Seuss, How the Grinch Stole Christmas
- How many observe Christ’s birthday! How few, His precepts. Benjamin Franklin
- Gifts of time and love are surely the basic ingredients of a truly merry Christmas. Peg Bracken
- Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love. Hamilton Wright Mabie
- Christmas is built upon a beautiful and intentional paradox; that the birth of the homeless should be celebrated in every home. G.K.Chesterton, Brave New Family
- Yet as I read the birth stories about Jesus I cannot help but conclude that though the world may be tilted toward the rich and powerful, God is tilted toward the underdog. Philip Yancey
As always, nice chatting…
Brian,
I like the post. There is much wisdom.
Thanks
