Nobody captures the enchantment and mystery of autumn better than Nathaniel Hawthorne. This will be a short but sweet entry into the exact middle of the week. Mastering an economy of words is the sign of a powerful writer.
There is no season when such pleasant and sunny spots may be lighted on, and produce so pleasant an effect on the feelings, as now in October. The sunshine is particularly genial…. It seems to be of a kindly and homely nature. And the green grass, strewn with a few withered leaves, looks the more green and beautiful for them. In summer or spring, Nature is farther from one’s sympathies. ~Nathaniel Hawthorne
