Happy, happy Christmas, that can win us back to the delusions of our childhood days, recall to the old man the pleasures of his youth, and transport the traveler back to his own fireside and quiet home! – Charles Dickens
I have known a vast quantity of nonsense talked about bad men not looking you in the face. Dont trust that conventional idea. Dishonesty will stare honesty out of countenance any day in the week, if there is anything to be got by it. – Charles Dickens
The word of a gentleman is as good as his bond; and sometimes better. – Charles Dickens
Take example by your father, my boy, and be very careful of vidders all your life, specially if theyve kept a public house, Sammy. – Charles Dickens
