Quotes
I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round, as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys. And therefore, uncle, though it has never put a scrap of gold or silver in my pocket, I believe that it has done me good, and will do me good; and I say, God bless it! - Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol
I am a part of all that I have met; / Yet all experience is an arch wherethrough / Gleams that untraveled world whose margin fades / Forever and forever when I move. - Alfred Lord Tennyson, Ulysses
Old ships, great anchors, heaps of chains, / Mushrooms and mandrake roots, and coarse green fish / Shaped like a Sardine. - Rupert Brooke, The Old Vicarage, Grantchester
