Quote of the Day (Ray Bradbury, on Halloween)


“The wind was a special wind this night, and the darkness took on a special feel because it was All Hallows' Eve. Everything seemed cut from soft black velvet or gold or orange velvet. Smoke panted up out of a thousand chimneys like the plumes of funeral parades. From kitchen windows drifted two pumpkin smells: gourds being cut, pies being baked.” —American novelist, short-story writer, and screenwriter Ray Bradbury (1920-2012), The Halloween Tree (1972)
