What is the grinches famous line?

Christmas is around the corner. The Grinch won’t steal it from us, but he’ll surely make us chuckle and even smile.

Initially published in 1957, How the Grinch Stole Christmas by Dr. Seuss was adapted to the big screen with Jim Carrey’s magic bringing it to life.

The Grinch has taught us a lot through his interesting personality. With time, we understood that it was not Christmas he hated; it was feeling lonely and neglected by the people near him because of the holiday.

So, until Christmas day, let’s grow our Christmas cheer with the best Grinch quotes:
