3 December 2020 Katharine McPhee My fondest memories are generally the day after Thanksgiving. I get the total decorating Christmas itch.
3 December 2020 Clement Clarke Moore T’was the night before Christmas, when all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
3 December 2020 David Hasselhoff My Christmas wish would be to have an entire week off. To spend it with my family and just curl up and watch Christmas movies when it’s snowing outside.
3 December 2020 Garth Brooks I don’t know of too many double Christmas albums, so it is something that’s new, and hopefully will be fun, and there’s plenty of stuff out there to cut.
3 December 2020 Norman Vincent Peale Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful.
3 December 2020 Ian Mckellen Godot is whatever it is in life that you are waiting for: ‘I’m waiting to win the lottery. I’m waiting to fall in love’. For me, as a child, it was Christmas. At least that eventually came.
3 December 2020 Trishelle Cannatella But Tammy Faye calls me, and Ron Jeremy calls me, Erik Estrada sends me a Christmas card every year.
3 December 2020 Richard E. Grant It always depresses me when people moan about how commercial Christmas is. I love everything about it. The tradition of having this great big feast, slap bang in the middle of winter, is an essential thing to look forward to at the end of the year.
3 December 2020 Gary Owens Then, when I got in the military, I used to host – even in high school – I hosted the talent shows, and when I was in the military I would host all of our base Christmas parties and stuff.
3 December 2020 Padma Lakshmi You don’t want your jewelry to make you look fat. A lot of what’s out there now does – you just wind up looking like a Christmas tree.
3 December 2020 Jeff Miller In our open society, we are inclined to give to the less fortunate for the pure goodness of giving. We open our home to those who are alone on this holiday to spread some warmth into the life of another.
3 December 2020 Frances Wright Pets, like their owners, tend to expand a little over the Christmas period.
3 December 2020 Clint Black I intend to keep writing Christmas songs. There’s still a lot more about Christmas that can be captured and feel like old-time Christmas. A lot of the traditions haven’t been explained in song.
3 December 2020 Ashley Judd And of course there’s so much music in and around our family. I had a piano during Christmas because it’s obviously useful through the season. There are so many people, songwriters, who are around.
3 December 2020 George Carlin The main reason Santa is so jolly is because he knows where all the bad girls live.
3 December 2020 Chris Van Allsburg Santa is our culture’s only mythic figure truly believed in by a large percentage of the population. It’s a fact that most of the true believers are under eight years old, and that’s a pity.
3 December 2020 Christopher Hitchens It’s surprising to me how many of my friends send Christmas cards, or holiday cards, including my atheist and secular friends.
3 December 2020 David O. Selznick I’m so depressed. Christmas is the worst of all. Holidays are terrible, worse than Sundays. I get melancholia.
3 December 2020 Steven Tyler Why not share with the world the way it is and tell them my feelings about my cat, and how I played with my kids, and how addicted to Christmas time I am, and the smell of pine needles and hearing my kids laugh.
3 December 2020 Kary Mullis My mother would give my brothers and me a pile of catalogues and let us pick what we wanted for Christmas.
3 December 2020 E. B. White To perceive Christmas through its wrappings becomes more difficult with every year.
3 December 2020 Carol Ann Duffy Christmas is taken very seriously in this household. I believe in Father Christmas, and there’s no way I’d do anything to undermine that belief.
3 December 2020 Bradley Whitford I was at the vice president’s Christmas party. I thought that his speech was spectacular, and I knew that it was a very emotional and difficult thing for him to do, but I admonished him for not waiting just one more stinking day.
3 December 2020 Trey Parker So we’re considering doing a new Christmas album, because there’s been Christmas episodes since then, and maybe finally do the version of ‘The Most Offensive Song Ever’ with lyrics intact.
3 December 2020 Lucinda Franks Christmas in Bethlehem. The ancient dream: a cold, clear night made brilliant by a glorious star, the smell of incense, shepherds and wise men falling to their knees in adoration of the sweet baby, the incarnation of perfect love.
3 December 2020 Bob Schieffer The truth is the Super Bowl long ago became more than just a football game. It’s part of our culture like turkey at Thanksgiving and lights at Christmas, and like those holidays beyond their meaning, a factor in our economy.
3 December 2020 Kevin Richardson At Christmas our house is like a Donnie and Marie Christmas Special.
3 December 2020 Alice Cooper The two most joyous times of the year are Christmas morning and the end of school.
3 December 2020 Ronald Reagan It’s silly talking about how many years we will have to spend in the jungles of Vietnam when we could pave the whole country and put parking stripes on it and still be home by Christmas.
