Christmas! The very word brings joy to our hearts. No matter how we may dread the rush, the long Christmas lists for gifts and cards to be bought and given--when Christmas Day comes there is still the same warm feeling we had as children, the same warmth that enfolds our hearts and our homes.
Joan Winmill Brown, American author and editor.
I heard the bells on Christmas Day; their old familiar carols play, and wild and sweet the word repeat of peace on earth, good-will to men!

Let us remember that the Christmas heart is a giving heart, a wide open heart that thinks of others first.

Underneath all the bulging bundles is this beating Christmas heart.
George Mathhew Adams
