Noch einmal ein Weihnachtsfest, Immer kleiner wird der Rest, Aber nehm' ich so die Summe, Alles Grade, alles Krumme, Alles Falsche, alles Rechte, Alles Gute, alles Schlechte – Rechnet sich aus allem Braus Doch ein richtig Leben raus. Und dies können ist das Beste Wohl bei diesem Weihnachtsfeste.
There's more, much more, to Christmas Than candlelight and cheer; It's the spirit of sweet friendship That brightens all year. It's thoughtfulness and kindness, It's hope reborn again, For peace, for understanding, And for goodwill to men!”
Christmas at my house is always at least six or seven times more pleasant than anywhere else. We start drinking early. And while everyone else is seeing only one Santa Claus, we'll be seeing six or seven.
Christmas is the time when people put so many light bulbs on the outside of their houses, you don't know if they're celebrating the birth of Jesus or General Electric.
