Boo-tiful Literary Pumpkins

Happy Hallowe'en! Here are my favorite literary pumpkins to celebrate the day in fine fashion!

Quoth the pumpkin, nevermore!

"As a squash is before 'tis a peascod..."

"The pumpkin is the only esculent of the orange family that will thrive in the North, except the gourd and one or two varieties of the squash. But the custom of planting it in the front yard with the shrubbery is fast going out of vogue, for it is now generally conceded that the pumpkin, as a shade tree, is a failure."

The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good pumpkin, must be intolerably stupid.
