A Quotable Christmas

I am not alone at all, I thought. I was never alone at all. And that, of course, is the message of Christmas. We are never alone. Not when the night is darkest, the wind coldest, the world seemingly most indifferent. For this is still the time God chooses.
~ Taylor Caldwell (1900-1985), English novelist

Remember, if Christmas isn't found in your heart, you won't find it under a tree.
~ Charlotte Carpenter.

A lovely thing about Christmas is that it's compulsory, like a thunderstorm, and we all go through it together.
~ Garrison Keillor (1942-)

Were I a philosopher, I should write a philosophy of toys, showing that nothing else in life need to be taken seriously, and that Christmas Day in the company of children is one of the few occasions on which men become entirely alive.
~ Robert Lynd (1892-1970), American sociologist.

[And one more time for good measure]
This is the message of Christmas: We are never alone.
