Grinch Stole Christmas

Famous quotes containing the words stole and/or christmas:

    “And then I stole all courtesy from heaven,
    And dressed myself in such humility
    That I did pluck allegiance from men’s hearts,
    Loud shouts and salutations from their mouths,
    Even in the presence of the crowned King.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Their old, familiar carols play,
    And wild and sweet
    The words repeat
    Of peace on earth, good will to men.”
