Grinch Quotes

“He took the Who’s feast, he took the Who pudding, he took the roast beast. He cleaned out that ice box as quick as a flash. Why, the Grinch even took their last can of Who hash.”
― Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch stole Christmas! And other stories

“Christmas doesn't feel like a holiday anymore. It feels more like a mainstream obligation to buy things for people most likely to buy us things, so we're not embarrassed by the perception of not caring for them. It's a product marketing season that starts earlier every year, replacing Halloween candy on the store shelves with Santa Claus. It's the most insufferable time of the year.”
― Kianu Starr

“There is no more dangerous or disgusting habit than that of celebrating Christmas before it comes.”
― G.K. Chesterton

“A Christmas Without Mistletoe by Stewart Stafford

What a holiday season!
No deliveries of mistletoe,
Could it be a Grinch-like,
Cancel culture embargo?

At the rate we're going,
We'll have no chance to kiss,
Can the Scrooge supply chain,
Find salvation after Christmas?

So save up your kisses,
Dampen down your ardour,
And maybe we can smooch,
In January's restocked larder.

“What brings Christmas to a standstill?
The whispers of a grinch behind closed doors.”
― Anthony T. Hincks
