If you haven't grown up in a Christian household or something, this completely fails. It doesn't sound like a reminder of purpose. Just a fail.
It did occur to me after the first attempted explanation that perhaps my unreligious upbringing was why this quote doesn't work for me. My immediate reaction to Linus' quote is simply 'no, that's not what Christmas is about at all' - Christmas has almost nothing to do with religion for me so the quote doesn't work.
