But Palm Sunday tells us that … it is the cross that is the true tree of life.
~ Pope Benedict XVI
Palm Sunday is like a glimpse of Easter. It's a little bit joyful after being somber during Lent.
~ Laura Gale
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout, daughter of Jerusalem! See, your king comes to you; righteous and having salvation, gentle and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
~ Zechariah 9:9
You are saying all those people who show up on Palm Sunday, Easter and Christmas fly away in between those holy days?
~ Buck Malachi
Ride on, ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp ride on to die;
O Christ, thy triumphs now begin
O’er captive death and conquered sin
~ Henry Hart Milman
It may well be that the world is denied miracle after miracle and triumph after triumph because we will not bring to Christ what we have and what we are. If, just as we are, we would lay ourselves on the altar of service of Jesus Christ, there is no saying what Christ could do with us and through us.
~ William Barclay
Alleluia, how the people cheer
And palm leaves rustle as the king draws near.
~ John Beavis
Lord, we lift up your name
With hearts full of praise;
Be exalted, O Lord my God!
Hosanna in the highest!
~ Carl Tuttle
Jesus Christ is a God whom we approach without pride, and before whom we humble ourselves without despair.
~ Blaise Pascal
Clap your hands all you people.
Shout unto God with a voice of praise!
They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting, "Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the King of Israel!
~ John 12:13
Holy, holy, holy, holy, holy, holy, Lord God of hosts,
Heaven and earth are full of your glory!
~ Isaiah 6:3
