Holidays Quotes
|
Hamilton Wright Mabie:Before the ice is in the pools,
Before the skaters go,
Or any cheek at nightfall
Is tarnished by the snow,
Before the fields have finished,
Before the Christmas tree,
Wonder upon wonder
Will arrive to me!
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow:Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love.
John Greenleaf Whittier:The holiest of holidays are those
Kept by ourselves in silence and apart;
The secret anniversaries of the heart.
Josephine Dodge Daskam Bacon:Somehow, not only for Christmas
But all the long year through,
The joy that you give to others
Is the joy that comes back to you.
And the more you spend in blessing
The poor and lonely and sad,
The more of your heart's possessing
Returns to you glad.
Remember this December, that love weighs more than gold!
