Top 10 Festive Quotes

 Here's my pick of some of the best Christmas quotes from various people, films and books. Merry Christmas!



1. “I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year. I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future. The Spirits of all Three shall strive within me. I will not shut out the lessons that they teach!”

― Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch Stole Christmas!
