75 Best Advent Quotes Perfect For The Christmas Season

For Christians, Advent means the arrival of a notable person or thing, namely the arrival of Jesus Christ. Despite its uncertain origins, the Advent season begins four weeks before Christmas.

It is marked by preparation and prayer for the birth of Jesus Christ. On the first Sunday of Advent, the church will begin lighting four candles that encircle the white Christ candle.

The candles represent happiness, optimism, peace, and love. The days leading up to Christmas are filled with joyful expectancy for the season's gifts. Advent is, therefore, a time of longing and preparation for the celebration of the Nativity of Christ at Christmas and also for Christ's return at the Second Coming.

Many Christian denominations observe Advent, including the Catholic, Anglican, Episcopal, Lutheran, and Reformed traditions. Holidays are celebrated in a variety of ways by people all around the globe.

80+ Best 'The Grinch' Quotes From 'How The Grinch Stole Christmas'

The Grinch is one of the most iconic fictional characters. Originally featured in a poem by Dr. Seuss, our favorite Christmas thief is predominantly associated with Jim Carrey's outlandish performance.

However, there are countless adaptations and dramatizations inspired by Dr. Seuss' 'How The Grinch Stole Christmas', with more being produced each year. The enduring popularity of 'How The Grinch Stole Christmas', is perhaps thanks to its central moral: Christmas is not about presents, but spending time with those you love.

Dr. Seuss clearly illustrates this as the Whos don't let The Grinch ruin Christmas and celebrate it despite their stolen gifts.

This leads to the Grinch's revelation that "What if Christmas... doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas... perhaps... means a little bit more!"
