Can you believe it’s already November? I’m always surprised at how fast it comes, but I’m always happy when it does because I love this time of year. These quotes illustrate some of the things there are to love about November.

1. “The thinnest yellow light of November is more warming and exhilarating than any wine they tell of. The mite which November contributes becomes equal in value to the bounty of July.”
-Henry David Thoreau

2. “It is the first day of November and so, today, someone will die.”
-Maggie Stiefvater

3. “In November you begin to know how long the winter will be.”
-Martha Gellhorn

4. “In November, the smell of food is different. It is an orange smell. A squash and pumpkin smell. It tastes like cinnamon and can fill up a house in the morning, can pull everyone from bed in a fog. Food is better in November than any other time of the year.”
-Cynthia Rylant

5. “Spring’s wakening bugle long is hushed,
Long dimm’d is Summer’s splendour;
October yields her easel bright
To ‘black and white’ November!”
-James Rigg
