"You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream."

- C.S. Lewis

If I speak in the tongues of Christmas materialism and greed but have not love, I am only a tinny Christmas song or an out of tune choir.

If I have the gift of knowing what Aunt Agatha will give me this year and can even understand last year's present, and if I have the faith that I won't get yet more socks and ties this year but have not love, I am nothing.

If I clear out the house and give everything to charity and my credit cards are snapped in half but have not love, what can I possibly gain?

"Jesus became man because what was needed was the death of a man who was more than man. The incarnation was God's locking himself into death row."

- John Piper

"When we recall Christmas past, we usually find that the simplest things, not the great occasions, give off the greatest glow of happiness."

- Bob Hope
