[Χριστος Ανεστη! Happy Easter to everyone celebrating it today[*]!]

"We should be taking steps to celebrate Easter in creative new ways: in art, literature, children's games, poetry, music, dance, festivals, bells, special concerts, anything that comes to mind. This is our greatest festival. Take Christmas away, and in biblical terms you lose two chapters at the front of Matthew and Luke, nothing else. Take Easter away, and you don't have a New Testament; you don;t have a Christianity... This is our greatest day. We should put the flags out."</a> -- Tom Wright [thanks to [info] - personal marnanel for quoting it yesterday]

[1] Orthodox Easter is next Sunday. (The spacing between Western Easter and Orthodox Easter varies from year to year. Some years, they're on the same day. Next year they're more than a month apart.)
