AlaraA Bradbury Quote
"Today was just another day in October in a year suddenly better than anyone supposed it could ever be just a short hour ago, with the moon and the stars moving in a grand rotation toward inevitable dawn, and them loping, and the last of the night's weeping done..."
I've searched the internet for awhile now, trying to figure out the context of this quote, to no avail. Does anyone know what story it might be from?

dandelionOffhand I'm guessing either "The Halloween Tree" or "Something Wicked This Way Comes," towards the end, but without checking could not say.

blackdogYep. The quote is from SWTWC. It starts in the middle of the last long paragraph of the last page. I read it just this morning.

dandelionThanks, I had a feeling that was it and you'd come through.

Chapter 31I love puzzles like this and was looking but didn’t stand a chance because it’s been too long since I read the book. I just reread the entire paragraph and it knocked my socks off.

lmskipperThat one came up right away on Google. Of course that takes the fun out of paging through Ray's great books!
