More quotes by Ray Bradbury
I love writing, it's the center of my life. If you don't love what you do, you'd better find something else to love. Otherwise, you don't have a reason for living.
Ray Bradbury
You have to learn to take rejection not as an indication of personal failing but as a wrong address.
Ray Bradbury
Touch a scientist and you touch a child.
Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury
Life is about trying things to see if they work.
Ray Bradbury
Every morning I jump out of bed and step on a landmine. The landmine is me. After the explosion, I spent the rest of the day putting the pieces together.
Ray Bradbury
He raged for hours. And the skeleton, ever the frail and solelmn philosopher, hung quietly inside, saying not a word, suspended like a delicate insect within a chrysalis, waiting and waiting.
Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury
I'm not really dying today. No person ever died that had a family. I'll be around a long time. A thousand years from now, a whole township of my offspring will be biting sour apples in the gumwood shade.
Ray Bradbury
Day, after day, after glorious day, I was falling in love with books.
Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury
I'm not trying to PREDICT the future. I'm just trying to PREVENT it.
Ray Bradbury
Everyone must leave something behind when he dies, my grandfather said. A child or a book or a painting or a house or a wall built or a pair of shoes made. Or a garden planted. Something your hand touched some way so your soul has somewhere to go when you die, and when people look at that tree or that flower you planted, you're there.
Ray Bradbury
And I saw then and there you take a man half-bad and a women half-bad and put their two good halves together and you got one human all good to share between.
Ray Bradbury
The local TV news is the greatest danger in your life. It's all crap.
Ray Bradbury
