“Along with being one of earliest sources for the pumpkin's linguistic heritage, the ancient Romans established the use of the pumpkin as an astonishingly consistent comical motif for the politician.”
Cindy Ott, Pumpkin: The Curious History of an American Icon

“As a sign of human nature, the pumpkin embodied unbounded lust or lack of civility; as a symbol of a place, it represented the untamed natural bounties of North America; and as an emblem of a way of life, it stood for a rustic peasant existence.”
Cindy Ott, Pumpkin: The Curious History of an American Icon
