Holidays Quotes

I once wanted to become an atheist, but I gave up -- they have no holidays.

Holidays - Have no pity.

Eugenio Montale

Holidays are in no sense an alternative to the congestion and bustle of cities and work. Quite the contrary. People look to escape into an intensification of the conditions of ordinary life, into a deliberate aggravation of those conditions: further from nature, nearer to artifice, to abstraction, to total pollution, to well above average levels of stress, pressure, concentration and monotony -- this is the ideal of popular entertainment. No one is interested in overcoming alienation; the point is to plunge into it to the point of ecstasy. That is what holidays are for.

Jean Baudrillard

How many observe Christ's birthday! How few, his precepts! O! 'tis easier to keep holidays than commandments.

Benjamin Franklin

Holidays are enticing only for the first week or so. After that, it is no longer such a novelty to rise late and have little to do.

Margaret Laurence

I ignore Hallmark Holidays. And this comes from a guy who has sold a million Opus greeting cards.
