Christmas Quotes
Most of the quotes on this page are not about Christmas at all. We built it from the pages on family, love and gratitude, which is what people tend to want for a card or a toast.
That makes it a long list, ordered by quality rather than by how seasonal each entry feels. If you want something that sounds like Christmas, search for it. If you want something that would be true at any family table, start here.

Call it peace or call it treason,
Call it love or call it reason,
But I ain't marching anymore!
Fountain heads and pathless groves,
Places which pale passion loves.

When I was young
I never needed anyone
And making love was just for fun
Those days are gone.
