Quotes / True Meaning of Christmas

Linus: Lights, please...

And there were in the same country shepherds abiding

in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night

And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them

and the glory of the Lord shone round about them

and they were sore afraid

And the angel said unto them Fear not! For behold

I bring you good tidings of great joy

which shall be to all people

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior

Tis Christ the Lord

And this shall be a sign unto you. Ye shall find the babe

wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger

And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the

heavenly host praising God, and saying

Glory to God in the highest

And on Earth Peace

Good Will toward Men

That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.

And the Grinch, with his grinch-feet ice-cold in the snow,

Stood puzzling and puzzling: "How could it be so?"

"It came without ribbons! It came without tags!"

"It came without packages, boxes or bags!"

And he puzzled three hours, till his puzzler was sore

Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before

"Maybe Christmas," he thought, "doesn't come from a store"

"Maybe Christmas... perhaps... means a little bit more"

"I used to think that Christmas was
About the wish list filled with stuff,
I never really needed anyway,
But as long as we're together,
It's a holiday.
It's not what you get, it's what you give.
We've got the spirit, clear and loud.
Ditch the list, hug who you're with,
'Cause that's what Christmas is all about!
It's what you give, not what you get.
We've got the hard part figured out.
This year will be the best one yet,
'Cause that's what Christmas is all about.
Merry Christmas from the Louds!"
