And I always wanted to be a certain, a bit similar to that. But I didn't want to sell pizza. — Robert Plant

I'm stable enough to go home until then. They all say I'm stable. — Laurie Halse Anderson
Ever since the Christmas of 1953, I have felt that the yuletide is a special hell for those families who have suffered any loss or who must admit to any imperfection; the so-called spirit of giving can be as greedy as receiving-Christmas is our time to be aware of what we lack, of who's not home. — John Irving

We never really went caroling, but once in a while we'd got out for a sleigh ride — Jimmy Roy

Okay, I know this is corny, but this really is what Christmas is all about. — Susan Beth Pfeffer
This was not a good idea coming home for Christmas. I'm too old.
