Why is it
you can buy your kids
buckets of Cowboys and
Indians to play with?
But you could never, would never,
even if you could, buy them buckets
of Jews and Nazis, of Serbs and
Croatians, of Tutsi and Hutu.

- Robert Burns: Halloween: The following poem will, by many readers, be well enough understood; but for the sake of those who are unacquainted with the manners and traditions of the country where the scene is cast, notes are added to give some account of the principal charms and spells of that night, so big with prophecy to the peasantry in the west of Scotland. The passion of prying into futurity makes a striking part of the history of human nature in its rude state, in all ages and nations; and it may be some entertainment to a philosophic mind, if any such honour the author with a perusal, to see the remains of it among the more unenlightened in our own.-R.B.
