Princes in this case
Do hate the traitor, though they love the treason.
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.
When love could teach a monarch to be wise,
And gospel-light first dawn'd from Bullen's eyes.
Love the little trade which thou hast learned, and be content therewith.
He that loves thee, He that keeps
And guards thee, never slumbers, never sleeps.
The scar of fire, the dint of steel,
Are easier than Love's wounds to heal.
We are kept all as securely in Love in woe as in weal, by the Goodness of God.
