But I am sure that I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round...as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant 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.

Love is not a feeling to pass away
Like the balmy breath of a Summer's day.......

As a thirst for honour, or fame, or gold

Change begets change.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

Change begets change. Nothing ...

Change begets change. Nothing propagates so fast. If a man habituated to a narrow circle of cares and pleasures, out of which he seldom travels, step beyond it, though for never so brief a space, his departure from the monotonous scene on which he has been an actor of importance would seem to be the signal for instant confusion. The mine which Time has slowly dug beneath familiar objects is sprung in an instant; and what was rock before, becomes but sand and dust.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

Change begets change. Nothing ...

Change begets change. Nothing propagates so fast.

All of us have wonders hidden in our breasts, only needing circumstances to evoke them.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

Christmas was close at hand, i...

Christmas was close at hand, in all his bluff and hearty honesty; it was the season of hospitality, merriment, and open-heartedness; the old year was preparing, like an ancient philosopher, to call his friends around him, and amidst the sound of feasting and revelry to pass gently and calmly away.
