Quotes About October
Celebrating the month of change
It’s October and now that we’re moving toward the end of the year, it’s time to start thinking about change — from the change of colors of the leaves to the changes we want to make for the rapidly approaching New Year. These quotes are about October and the reasons this month is so special.

2. “I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.”

3. “October is the treasure of the year,
And all the months pay bounty to her store….”

4. “October is the fallen leaf, but it is also a wider horizon more clearly seen. It is the distant hills once more in sight, and the enduring constellations above them once again.”

5. “October is the month of painted leaves.
Their rich glow now flashes round the world.
As fruits and leaves and the day itself
acquire a bright tint just before they fall,
so the year near its setting.
October is its sunset sky;
November the later twilight.”
-Henry David Thoreau
