Quote for Tuesday, December 23, 2014
It struck me that the popularity of Christmas
is a matter of web-like consciousness.
Childhood conditions us to relax and expand
at Christmas, to forget petty worries and
irritations and think in terms of universal peace.
And so Christmas is the nearest to mystical experience
that most human beings ever approach,
with its memories of Dickens and
Irving's Bracebridge Hall.
~ Colin Wilson (The Philospher's Stone)
