Not to play dress-up. – Alexa Vega • I am unusually Halloween-attentive, because, as it happens, I was born on Halloween, so for me it has always been an occasion of great moment. Susan Orlean • I attributed their behavior to the fact that they didn’t have a TV, but television didn’t teach you everything.

This was one of the things you were supposed to learn simply by being alive, and it angered me that the Tomkeys did not understand it. David Sedaris • I couldn’t get away with Halloween pranks ’cause my parents owned the health food store. So, it was so easy to bust me.

This makes me VERY unpopular. – Rachel Zucker • I have a night off on Halloween. It’s Halloween for me every night. Let everybody else be Ozzy for the night. People go out dressed as me. – Ozzy Osbourne • I have two rules when you come to my house on Halloween. Wear a costume – ’cause if you’ve manned your door at your own house, you know how many kids will roll up, 14 years old with no costume and an attitude. My other rule: don’t grab. Let me assess you and then design a candy situation for you. – Greg Behrendt • I haven’t put on a baseball uniform since about age 12. It’s like I’m wearing a Halloween costume.

I usually have at least three costumes. Audrina Patridge • I love Halloween! I love it so much that I used to work at a haunted house every year.- Daniella Monet • I love Halloween.

I like blood and gore, and I love Halloween movies. • I love the spirit of Halloween and the energy that comes with it. Katharine McPhee • I loved New Jersey.

No lie. – Michael Trevino • I saw thousands of pumpkins last night come floating in on the tide, bumping up against the rocks and rolling up on the beaches; it must be Halloween in the sea – Richard Brautigan • I see my face in the mirror and go, ‘I’m a Halloween costume? That’s what they think of me?’ – Drew Carey • I sort of have a dark, twisted, offbeat way of writing, which I see coming up in my kids. It’s funny, on Halloween, one of my daughters said, “Halloween isn’t supposed to be happy, dad, it’s supposed to be dark. ” No smiling pumpkins at the Sixx household! Nikki Sixx • I take the palette with me, but I have a lot of makeup. I was a makeup artist when I was younger, but I’m not that good compared with my makeup artist, so I keep things pretty simple. I explore a lot with pink and nude lipsticks, but I love red lipsticks. I love a line and a lash and a brow. So I don’t need a lot, but I have a lot. It’s all there just in case – for Halloween or whatever. Gwen Stefani • I think a lot of times it just looks like Hollywood actors in Halloween costumes, you know? And I think what we’re going to do with Fantastic Four is going to be very grounded and it made sense to me. When I read the script, I didn’t feel like I was reading this larger-than-life, incredible superhero tale. These are all very human people that end up having to become I guess what is known as the Fantastic Four. So for me it was just a really good story and gives me an opportunity to play something different from my own skin. It’s a proper character and that’s my favorite stuff to do. Miles Teller • I think that Michael Myers is an icon. The bad guys, it’s always the bad guys that everybody loves. It’s Michael Myers, it’s Freddy, it’s Jason, they’re like the Dracula and Frankenstein of our generation. I think it started a new wave of horror films. They’re cult classics and they’re something that everybody wants to watch on Halloween. – Danielle Harris • I told Pat I want to be him for Halloween. I almost got hit and I told Pat I should stop teasing him. Tie Domi • I turned down Halloween parties every year, where people wanted zombies raised at the stroke of midnight or some such nonsense. The scarier my reputation got, the more people wanted me to come be scary for them. I’d told Bert I could always go and threaten to shoot all the partygoers, that’d be scary. Bert had not been amused. But he had stopped asking me to do parties. – Laurell K. Hamilton • I used to compete with my brother to see who could get the most Halloween candy, I remember doing that. – Jermell Charlo • I used to dress up as a model for Halloween, like every year. – Chanel Iman • I want to be Michael Clifford for Halloween. – Luke Hemmings • I was kind of a dark kid. I loved Halloween, and I loved vampires and the black and white old monster movies. • I was offered a choice of a flat salary up front or a percentage of the film’s future earnings. I took the up front money. Nobody could have figured what Halloween would ultimately become. Donald Pleasence • I went to a party at the Playboy Mansion once. For a Halloween Party. And everyone wasn’t in costume, or if they were they were little bunnies or something, and I went as Michael Jackson. – January Jones • I wish everyday could be Halloween. We could all wear masks all the time. Then we could walk around and get to know each other before we got to see what we looked like under the masks. R. J. Palacio • I would love if gay men responded to me. All I want is for many gay men to dress up as me for Halloween. – Mindy Kaling • If human beings had genuine courage, they’d wear their costumes every day of the year, not just on Halloween. • If I could’ve picked a birthday it would’ve been on Halloween. Yeah, it’s always been my favorite holiday. Not because it was my birthday, but actually because, I think it was the freedom, you know? When you were a little kid, you got to go out and be an adult for a couple of hours. You got to, like, just go out with your friends and knock on peoples’ doors and be nuts and pull pranks and stuff like that. You could be whoever you wanted to be, you know, I guess that was the appeal to it. – Frank Iero • If I wasn’t even famous or had any success, I would still wake up and put tons of make-up on, and put on a cool outfit. That’s always been who I’ve been my whole life, so that’s never gonna change. I love fashion. I love getting dressed up. I love Halloween, too. – Gwen Stefani • If I were to remake a movie, I’d love to remake Halloween 3 Season of the Witch because even though it’s a very flawed film, at its core is a brilliant idea: An evil toymaker is set to kill all the children of the world on Halloween night – and I think that’s absolutely fantastic. So whoever has the rights can give me a call. – Bryan Fuller • If I’m really honest, I’m not a huge fan of scary films. I remember being a teenager, and people getting out like Halloween [1978] or Saw [2004], and watching them, and I’d kind of just stare at the television logo and blur my eyes and pretend I was watching but I wasn’t because I just found that I would take the movie home with me. I can scare myself like a pro. – Imogen Poots • If people work together, if they can keep a cooperative spirit and use their ingenuity and balance it all with good humor and good will, then there’s nothing to be afraid of. That’s the sappy part of it, … On the other hand, every Halloween for many years when my kids were trick-or-treating I would put on my ‘Ghostbusters’ jumpsuit with a police flashlight to protect all the kids from ghosts. Harold Ramis • If you are an adult, and you are planning to dress up on Halloween… don’t. I will find you. I will hurt you. – Lewis Black • I’ll bet living in a nudist colony takes all the fun out of Halloween.- Charles S. Swartz • I’m a festive guy to begin with and Halloween is my favorite holiday. I went all out on this one costume. It’s a ghoul that makes me approximately 10 feet tall when I wear it. I actually got an offer to work at a haunted house because the costume is so great, and I did it for about an hour and a half before I got too cold and had to quit to go inside. Michigan winters are no joke. – Andre Dirrell • I’m interested in the self. And in the limits and transformations of self. And in self presentation. And in doubt. And in playing with the audience’s expectations. But I don’t like dressing up like on Halloween. – Rachel Zucker • In Cuba they don’t celebrate Halloween but my favorite moments have been trick-or-treating with my kids here in the U.S.: they really enjoy it. – Erislandy Lara • In Halloween, I viewed the characters as simply normal teenagers. Laurie, Jamie Lee’s character, was shy and somewhat repressed. And Michael Myers, the killer, is definitely repressed. They have certain similarities. – John Carpenter • In masks and gown we haunt the street, And knock on doors for trick or treat, Tonight we are the king and queen, For oh tonight it’s Halloween! – Jack Prelutsky • In recent years, there have been reports of people with twisted minds putting razor blades and poison in taffy apples and Halloween candy. It is no longer safe to let your child eat treats that come from strangers. -Ann Landers • In San Francisco, Halloween is redundant. – Will Durst • In some ways, Halloween is much easier for women. They can just dress as sluts, and it’s kind of a costume, if they never do any other time. – Chuck Klosterman • In the midst of all the candy and commercialism, let’s not lose sight of the true meaning of Halloween: tree worship and animal sacrifice. – Dana Gould • It hasn’t even been competitive. That’s the first thing we’re going to have to do is just find a way to stay competitive because these (first two games) have been over by halftime. We saw that last year too (on Halloween). It was 21-3 (Steelers) at the end of the first quarter. Bill Belichick • It took me a moment. I blinked, and suddenly it swam into focus and I had to frown very hard to keep myself from giggling out loud like the schoolgirl Deb had accused me of being. Because he had arranged the arms and legs in letters, and the letters spelled out a single small word: BOO. The three torsos were carefully arranged below the BOO in a quarter-circle, making a cute little Halloween smile. What a scamp. – Jeff Lindsay • It was sort of fun tonight, it was a little exciting on Halloween. Hines Ward • It’s said that All Hallows’ Eve is one of the nights when the veil between the worlds is thin – and whether you believe in such things or not, those roaming spirits probably believe in you, or at least acknowledge your existence, considering that it used to be their own. Even the air feels different on Halloween, autumn-crisp and bright. – Erin Morgenstern • It’s a very appropriate show to be doing around Halloween because it’s very dark and mysterious. There are some great chorus scenes and some dark stuff and funny stuff as well. It’s a really perfect balanced show in many regards.- James Marvel • It’s Halloween! It’s Halloween! The moon is full and bright, And we shall see what can’t be seen, On any other night. Skeletons and ghosts and ghouls, Grinning goblins fighting duels. Werewolves rising from their tombs, Witches on their magic brooms. In masks and gown we haunt the street. And knock on doors for trick or treat. Tonight we are the king and queen, For oh tonight it’s Halloween! – Jack Prelutsky • It’s not a giant thing, like graduation, Mardi Gras, Halloween or New Year’s. We do get business from it. That’s why we put stuff out; we don’t skip it. It’s our big thing for March. – Suzanne Smith • It’s not that I want you to be a certain way–don’t you want a boyfriend?” “Why bother with that? Let’s find incubi.” “Incubi?” “Demons. Plural. Like octopi. And we’re much more likely to find them”–her voice dropped conspiratorially–“while swimming naked in the Atlantic a week before Halloween than practically anywhere else I can think of. Holly Black • I’ve had some movies that have been ridiculed, but that’s OK with me. I don’t feel that really defines me. Should I change who I am to be popular? – Kevin Costner • I’ve seen lots of Halloween people dressed up like me and they’ll send me pictures. And I found that very rewarding to know that I’ve reached anyone. – Bray Wyatt Joe Manganiello • John and I had a few meetings about what direction the sequel should take. I made some real insane suggestions. True to what you’d expect, he ignored them all and just picked up Halloween II where the original left off. Donald Pleasence • John Carpenter created the idea of Halloween, so his vision remains the most focused and intelligently directed of the series. The directors that have followed have kept the original intent of the concept. Donald Pleasence • just because I don’t have on a silly black costume and carry a silly broom and wear a silly black hat, doesn’t mean that I’m not a witch. I’m a witch all the time and not just on Halloween. E. L. Konigsburg • Last Halloween a kid tried to rip my face off. He thought it was a mask. Now it’s different when I open the door the kids hand me candy. – Rodney Dangerfield • Last Halloween I ran out of candy and I had to give the kids nicotine gum. – David Letterman • Like at Halloween: I knew I’d arrived when I saw people dressing up on Halloween as my character. – Jane Badler • Mr. Crossley suddenly wondered why he was why he was worrying about the note. It was only a joke, after all. He cleared his throat. Everyone looked up hopefully. ‘Somebody,’ said Mr. Crossley, ‘seems to have sent me a Halloween message.’ And he read out the note: ‘SOMEONE IN THIS CLASS IS A WITCH.’ 6B thought this was splendid news. Hands shot up all over the room like a bed of beansprouts. ‘It’s me, Mr. Crossley!’ ‘Mr. Crossley, I’m the witch!’ ‘Can I be the witch, Mr. Crossley?’ ‘Me, Mr. Crossley, me, me, me! – Diana Wynne Jones • My favorite memories were never about candy or anything like that. When I got to be a teenager, my friends and I used to get together and do all kinds of crazy stuff on Halloween night. We had a ball starting trouble. Now that I’m more mature I realize that wasn’t the right way to act, but it was the time of my life back then. – Tony Harrison • My favorite time of year is October, Halloween is my favorite holiday, and I know that watching horror movies was such a special thing to me as a child and my only dream is that I get to make it feel like Halloween all year round for other kids, for other weirdos like me. – Matthew Gray Gubler • New Rule: If an Evangelical tries to use Halloween to pimp Jesus to kids, they get to egg his house. On Halloween, the president of the American Family Association urged his flock to hand out a Christian-based comic book instead of candy. Excuse me, Halloween isn’t a time to push your beliefs. You don’t see me handing out pot to kids…Okay, well not the little kids. Bill Maher • No matter what time of year it’s always funny when a person walks by me dressed in religious garb and I say Happy Halloween! – Gary Gulman • Nothing on Earth is so beautiful as the final haul on Halloween night. – Steve Almond • Now, I have a Halloween mask I think you might get a kick out of. That’s scary. – Jay Leno • On Halloween, don’t you know back when you were little, your mom tells you don’t eat any candy until she checks it? I used to be so tempted to eat my candy on the way to other people’s houses. That used to be such a tease. – Derrick Rose • On Halloween, the parents sent their kids out looking like me. Rodney Dangerfield • On Halloween, witches come true; Wild ghosts escape from dreams. Each monster dances in the park.- Nick Gordon • On the Night of the Halloween, I have never seen any evil apparition or fearsome ghost, but politicians on TV! They are the real goblins and specters! Mehmet Murat Ildan • One of the tours we had scheduled – the gaslight tour of Jack the Ripper’s haunts, and on Halloween, no less, was canceled at the last minute. I recommend making sure you know the numbers of your tours and destinations so you can confirm your schedule along the way. Also, though we laugh about it now, the Eiffel Tower was on strike so we couldn’t go up! Andrea Phillips • People give you a hard time about being a kid at twelve. They didn’t want to give you Halloween candy anymore. They said things like, “If this were the Middle Ages, you’d be married and you’d own a farm with about a million chickens on it.” They were trying to kick you out of childhood. Once you were gone, there was no going back, so you had to hold on as long as you could. – Heather O’Neill • People value Halloween, like Valentine’s Day, because they can tell themselves that it’s not merely secularized but actually secular, which is to say, not Christian, Jewish, Hindu or Muslim. – Amity Shlaes • Pixie, kobold, elf, and sprite, All are on their rounds tonight; In the wan moon’s silver ray, Thrives their helter-skelter play. – Joel Benton • Pop culture is more and more about skulls and skeletons and zombies and vampires, and that’s not just on Halloween. Michael Almereyda • Remember when we used to worry about some weirdo having a razor blade inside an apple on Halloween? Not anymore. Like a kid today would eat an apple. Jay Leno • Right. Because there’s no bigger sign of commitment than a Halloween dance – Richelle Mead • Shadows of a thousand years rise again unseen, Voices whisper in the trees, “Tonight is Halloween!” – Dexter Kozen • She liked anything orange: leaves; some moons; marigolds; chrysanthemums; cheese; pumpkin, both in pie and out; orange juice; marmalade. Orange is bright and demanding. You can’t ignore orange things. She once saw an orange parrot in the pet store and had never wanted anything so much in her life. She would have named it Halloween and fed it butterscotch. Her mother said butterscotch would make a bird sick and, besides, the dog would certainly eat it up. September never spoke to the dog again — on principle. – Catherynne M. Valente • Since I was 15 years old I’ve never been able to spend Christmas, Halloween or Thanksgiving (with friends and family). This was the first time I was able to enjoy a Super Bowl. – Brendan Shanahan • So when I open the door on Halloween, I am confronted by three or four imaginary heroes, such as G.I. Joe, Conan the Barbarian and Oliver North, who would look very terrifying except that they are three feet tall and facing in random directions. They stand there silently for several seconds before an adult voice hisses from the darkness behind them: “Say ‘Trick or treat! – Dave Barry • So when it came to making the movie I guess I had a really good sense innately of what it was that makes Halloween really great. In that it is a holiday for everybody now. When I was a kid I felt like it was mostly for kids, maybe that’s just the way it always is when you’re a kid, but I think now more than ever it’s for grown ups too. When I was a kid I don’t think there were quite as many sexy adult costumes and we definitely didn’t have all these Spirit Halloween stores that pop up every October. – Michael Dougherty • Speak out, educate, do not be intimidated by the apologists, and do not let extreme racism be mainstreamed. Hopefully there will come a time when we don’t need to tell our kids that Halloween is no excuse for hate, and that blackface has no place in a civilized society. Christine Pelosi • Stars, hide your fires; Let not light see my black and deep desires. William Shakespeare • Studio 54 made Halloween in Hollywood look like a PTA meeting. Lorna Luft • Target launch date for Falcon I maiden flight is Halloween(October 31) from our island launch complex in the Kwajalein Atoll. For potential customers out there, I should mention that Kwajalein has some of the worlds best scuba diving and snorkeling! It is literally a tropical paradise. Elon Musk • Technically my dog’s naked most of the time. Except halloween, when I dress him up as Liza Minelli. – Craig Ferguson • That’s definitely true! It was before my father died, so I can’t attribute it to an obsession with death. When I was seven, I loved those old Sherlock Holmes movies with Basil Rathbone. The Scarlet Claw was one of my faves. And I loved all the Halloween’s and that film about the haunted house… Burnt Offerings, with Oliver Reed. Every birthday party was a slumber party and we’d watch horror films. – Cate Blanchett • That’s why we’re doing this, to defend our traditions a little. I don’t have anything against it (Halloween), but it’s not our tradition. Fernando Flores • The artist must bow to the monster of his own imagination. – Richard Wright • The biggest surprise was a picture my mom sent me, just about the time that we were about to wrap up the book, of me as a 5-year-old dressed in my first Halloween costume that she made for me. I said, “What’s this? I never saw this photo.” And she said, “We made you this black-and-orange Halloween costume out of crepe paper” – we were too poor to have fabric back then – “and you wanted to go as the Queen Of Halloween.” And I was like, “What?” And she said, “Yeah, the Princess Of Halloween, the Queen Of Halloween, something like that. – Cassandra Peterson • The first Halloween was very well made. The second one was also well made, though I didn’t like it as well as the first one. The third one had nothing to do with the series at all and perhaps shouldn’t have been made at all. Donald Pleasence • The holiday is clearly growing in importance for the industry. Halloweens fun, enjoyable and doesn’t require a big investment to celebrate. The primary focus is the child and families typically do all they can to make sure the children have fun. – Richard Hastings • The idea is to make sure that these sex offenders are occupied with constructive matters and not focused on the children who may be knocking at their doors this Halloween Andrew Spano • The idea of dying and coming back is what makes the Halloween films work. Donald Pleasence • The Jawbreaker writer-director Darren Stein was a huge fan of Carrie and Halloween. He was like a kid. He was 26, so he was such a fan. He wanted William Katt and I, from Carrie, to be in the movie as the parents. We had a little bit more that ended up on the cutting-room floor, but that was kind of fun. Everybody that worked on that movie was really cool, including the girls, especially the new girl, the blonde, Judy Greer. – P. J. Soles • The perfect weather of Indian Summer lengthened and lingered, warm sunny days were followed by brisk nights with Halloween a presentiment in the air.- Wallace Stegner • The Queens Of The Stone Age have teamed up with multimedia wizard brain Liam Lynch to make the video for ‘Burn The Witch’ , a home-made affair that’s just in time for Halloween. For the band, playing both the roles of cast and crew paid ginormous dividends, in the form of a video that cuts the heads off all contemporaries . – Joshua Homme • Then, finally, the third year, begging the parents, I got the Superman Halloween costume. Cardboard box, self-made top, mask included. Remember the rubber band on the back of that mask? That was a quality item there, wasn’t it? That was good for about 10 seconds before it snapped out of that cheap little staple they put it in there with. – Jerry Seinfeld • There is nothing funny about Halloween. This sarcastic festival reflects, rather, an infernal demand for revenge by children on the adult world. Jean Baudrillard • There’s going to be a Halloween costume [of lavash from Sausage Party]. The whole thing is just so ridiculous. It’s nice. It’s silly, and it’s surreal. – David Krumholtz • They take the greats from the past and compare us. I wonder if they’d ever survive in this era. In a time where it’s recreation, to pull all your skeletons out the closet like Halloween decorations. – Drake • This Halloween, the most popular mask is the Arnold Schwarzenegger mask. And the best part? With a mouth full of candy you will sound just like him. Conan O’Brien • Two Polish men at Halloween with burned faces. What happened? They were bobbing for french fries. – Henny Youngman • Waiting is one of life’s hardships. It is hard enough to wait for chocolate cream pie while burnt roast beef is still on your plate. It is plenty difficult to wait for Halloween when the tedious month of September is still ahead of you. But to wait for one’s adopted uncle to come home while a greedy and violent man is upstairs was one of the worst waits the Baudelaires had ever experienced. – Daniel Handler • Want to continue to try and break the barrier between male and female. If you want to do that, that’s fine. At our shows, it’s like a Halloween party, which isn’t a bad thing. I’d like to see more of it actually. – Twiggy • We had nine pails of candy for Halloween, now we are down to one. They go for a lot of the candy mixes. I think that they buy them for themselves sometimes. Brenda V. Smith • We post photos of the Halloween costumes and the mustaches made of cupcake frosting. We don’t record the tantrums?and that’s as it should be. But we shouldn’t mistake that for reality. It’s stagecraft. Libby Copeland • We talked to a lot of filmmakers who had worked on other anthologies and we looked at every anthology, and we wanted to just find a different way [for Tales of Halloween]. And being that unity was what the whole spirit of the project was – unity and friendship and community. – Mike Mendez • We used to go around tipping outhouses over, or turning over corn shocks on Halloween. Anything to be mean. – Loretta Lynn • We were a family that made our Halloween costumes. Or, more accurately, my mother made them. She took no suggestions or advice. Halloween costumes were her territory. She was the brain behind my brothers winning girl costume, stuffing her own bra with newspapers for him to wear under a cashmere sweater and smearing red lipstick on his lips. – Ann Hood • We’ve become great friends with Rob Zombie, and I gave him my original script for Halloween for his 40th birthday. Like, Nicolas Cage was there with a shrunken head he brought as a gift, all these things, and I’m thinking, “What can I give Rob Zombie? This is very weird.” And I just happened to look at my pile of scripts and I went, “My kids don’t need all these. I think I’ll give him my original Halloween script, since he told me that was his favorite movie, and I was his favorite actress from that time period.” I said, “He deserves to have that.” – P. J. Soles • We’ve got a major scandal with Clinton. Plus, Halloweens on a Saturday this year. – C. Sue Carter • We’ve never done a coordinated music effort. Everything else we’ve done has been around a holiday – Halloween, Mardi Gras, half way to Mardi Gras, St. Patrick’s Day. – Craig Johnson • What we think of as Halloween is really the product of media barons, city mayors, and candy-makers. You know, before the 1920s, Halloween was really a terrible, terrible night. Chuck Palahniuk • When I came off the Halloween movies, they were very stressful movies to make. That had been four very stressful years. I’m happy with how they turned out, but getting the end results took so much fighting with people and so much craziness, that at the end of it I was so burnt out. Rob Zombie • When I was a kid I got busted for throwing a rock through a car window and egging a house on halloween. – Gavin DeGraw • When I was a kid my family was really poor and I remember one Halloween I wanted to dress up really scary and my parents came home with a duck costume. I wore that costume for years! I hated it. R. L. Stine • When I was eighteen, River Phoenix was far and away my hero. Think of all those early great performances – My Own Private Idaho. Stand by Me. I always wanted to meet him. One night, I was at this Halloween party, and he passed me. He was beyond pale – he looked white. Before I got a chance to say hello, he was gone, driving off to the Viper Room, where he fell over and died. That’s a lesson. – Leonardo DiCaprio • When I was just five years old, I loved the scary layer and the symbolical power of the red cloak. I made my mom make me that red cloak, and I had to wear it on Halloween, two years in a row. – Catherine Hardwicke • When it comes to romance, I’m really simple. I am really a ‘dinner and a movie’ type of person, and I love food, so surprise me and order something different or adventurous when it comes to food, and I’m like a kid at Halloween. Sasha Grey • Who are you writing to, Linus?” “This is the time of year to write to the Great Pumpkin. On Halloween Night, the Great Pumpkin rises out of his pumpkin patch and flies through the air with his bag of toys for all the children!” “You must be crazy! When are you going to stop believing in something that isn’t true?” “When *you* stop believing in that fellow with a red suit and the white beard who goes, ‘Ho, ho, ho!'” “We’re obviously separated by denominational differences. – Charles M. Schulz • With Halloween coming this weekend, they say not one person in the country is planning to dress up as Governor Sarah Palin. You know why? … The costume costs $150,000. – Jay Leno • With Halloween on a Monday this year, that gives people a chance to have parties on Friday, Saturday or Sunday. – Suzanne Smith • With Halloween, the director was this genius wonder boy who was the writer, director, producer, along with his girlfriend. They were this team, and they were making this small movie, and it was just completely different, but it was really inspiring and a lot of fun, and also allowed me to do a lot of improvisation, because they just depended on the girls to expand their parts to bring some real life, being girls ourselves, to the characters. – P. J. Soles • With the garden I planted for the Reina Sofia, each plant related to different celebrations along the calendar – Christmas with evergreen trees, Valentine’s Day with roses, Halloween with pumpkins. All these symbols are so culturally loaded, but they are organic living entities – just like the fish in the tanks. They grow on their own. The symbolic ecosystem is growing without a narrative anymore. It’s a physical and mental landscape. – Pierre Huyghe • You kids have fun, and be home by Thanksgiving!” our parents would call to us on Halloween night, as we staggered out the front door, weighed down by hundreds of pounds of concealed vandalism supplies, including enough raw eggs to feed Somalia for decades. By morning, thanks to our efforts, the entire neighborhood would be covered with a layer of congealed shaving cream and toilet paper that, around certain unpopular neighbors’ homes, was hundreds of feet thick. This is how the Appalachian Mountains were formed.- Dave Barry • You look at Cheney, Rumsfeld, Karl Rove, and Bush – if you saw them on Halloween, they wouldn’t need a costume. You’d give them a treat and compliment them on what great-looking demons they were. They are demons. There’s no doubt about it. Tommy Chong • You would think that Halloweens tomorrow because of their attempt to scare the American public. Jim Sensenbrenner • You’ll see everything from gold teeth to hood ornaments. It’s almost like Halloween during August. David Carson
