“Or consider Christmas — could Satan in his most malignant mood have devised a worse combination of graft plus buncombe than the system whereby several hundred million people get a billion or so gifts for which they have no use, and some thousands of shop-clerks die of exhaustion while selling them and every other child in the western world is made ill from over-eating — all in the name of the lowly Jesus?”
Upton Sinclair
“It is Christmas every time you let God love others through you … yes, it is Christmas every time you smile at your brother and offer him your hand.”
Mother Teresa of Calcutta
