Frye on Advent

A quote from Northrup Frye on wishing "merry Christmas":

Christianity speaks of making the earth
resemble the kingdom of heaven, and
teaches that the kingdom of heaven is
within man. This is something very like
the conquest of the whole year by the
spirit of Christmas, and is the kind
of thing we mean when we wish
a merry Christmas to all.
