25 Best Christmas Quotes That Will Make You Feel Jolly
“At Christmas, all roads lead home.” ❤️
There's not one true definition that describes the feeling that Christmas brings. Yeah, you could talk about the best Christmas carols that get stuck in our head every season. Or we could bring up the way our favorite Christmas treats tickle our noses when we get closer to the holiday. We could even explain the joy we feel getting to open up the Christmas gifts under the tree that special morning! But they wouldn't do the holiday justice the way these Christmas quotes do!
Whether you need a fabulous Christmas Instagram caption or you're wondering what to write in a Christmas card, there's bound to be something here that speaks to you. We're pretty sure Nora Roberts said it best: "Nothing ever seems too bad, too hard, or too sad when you've got a Christmas tree in the living room." There are plenty of Christmas movie quotes you'll remember (Christmas Vacation and Elf are both full of the funniest one-liners) as well as more sentimental sayings to share with family and friends. And even if you're spending the holiday alone, you'll find comfort in these special words. As Karli Perrin reminds us, "It's easy to forget that life is the greatest gift of all." Here's to expressing merry Christmas wishes throughout the holiday season—and well into the new year ahead. Happy holidays!
