“The greatest book about giving that I've ever read is 'A Christmas Carol' by Charles Dickens, about Scrooge and how happy he was when he started doing things to help Tiny Tim's impoverished family, ... Remember? His whole attitude changed and he was happy.”
Ted Turner
“Christmas gift suggestions:To your enemy, forgiveness.To an opponent, tolerance.To a friend, your heart. To a customer, service. To all, charity. To every child, a good example. To yourself, respect.”
Oren Arnold
“This is Christmas: not the tinsel, not the giving and receiving, not even the carols, but the humble heart that receives anew the wondrous gift, the Christ.”
Frank McKibben
“Ask your children two questions this Christmas. First: "What do you want to give to others for Christmas?" Second: "What do you want for Christmas?" The first fosters generosity of heart and an outward focus. The second can breed selfishness if not tempered by the first. -”
