Quote of the Day (Charles Dickens’ Reformed Scrooge, on ‘Christmas in My Heart’)


“I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year. I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future. The Spirits of all Three shall strive within me. I will not shut out the lessons that they teach!”—Ebenezer Scrooge, realizing the error of his ways, in Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol (1843)

The image accompanying this post shows Alistair Sim, who played Scrooge in what, to me, is still the definitive adaptation of Dickens’ Christmas classic.

Merry Christmas, my friends!
