Love guards the roses of thy lips
And flies about them like a bee.
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.
I love it, I love it; and who shall dare
To chide me for loving that old arm-chair?
I never was on the dull, tame shore,
But I loved the great sea more and more.
Writing is hard work. The fact that I love doing it doesn't make it less hard work.
Love's but a frailty of the mind,
When 'tis not with ambition joined.
Love is ever the beginning of Knowledge as fire is of light.
