Ray Bradbury
“Jim gazed fiercely deep into the bottomless sea, where now only the pure light glanced back at itself" (Bradbury 63). This text not only describes what Jim is seeing, but also scared of what he does not know. He sees that is "glanced back", of how he described the maze.”
Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury
“On page 86, "This wasn't like Jim. Always before, the window slid up, Jim's head popped out, ripe with yells, secret hissings, giggles, riots and rebel charges." This quote shows that something isn't right, that this isn't what Will was expecting of Jim. This quote can foreshadow of what could happen later in the book.”
Ray Bradbury, Something Wicked This Way Comes

Ray Bradbury
“The metal thing was hammered and shaped half-crescent, half-cross.Around the rim of the
main rod little curlicues and doohingies had been soldered on, later. The entire surface of the rod was finely scratched and etched with strange languages, names that could tie the tongue or break the jaw, numerals that added to incomprehensible sums, pictographs of insect animals all bristle, chaff, and claw" (Bradbury 6). In this quote, Bradbury is giving us and showing what the character is describing, In this case, it is an Egyptian Scarab. How the quote was described was to attract the eyes of Jim, or even the readers.”
Ray Bradbury, Something Wicked This Way Comes

Ray Bradbury
“Will became a bush under a bush, a shadow among shadows, with two starlight rounds of glass, his eyes, holding the image of Jim calling up in a whisper toward the second floor windows" (Bradbury 90). This quote shows that Will hid behind the bush so well that no one can see him, that he became a shadow among shadows. The phrase "shadow among shadows" is to show that no one can see him, he is a shadow in a shadow”
Ray Bradbury, Something Wicked This Way Comes
