Refugees in Bethlehem

"They look like trick or treat--all dirty and fastened together with safety pins and wearing their mouldy old sneakers...Mary and Joseph, I mean. They look like refugees or something."

"Well...that's what they were...Mary and Joseph. They were refugees, in a way. They were a long way from home, didn't have any place to stay, didn't know anybody. They were probably cold and hungry and tired...and messy."
